Thank you, appreciate it! Love how they came out.
I made an account just to comment on this thread. How does the Apex Arc 8's look on a stock e90 M3? Basically any setup that doesn't require spacers or camber plate. Do spacers provide a much superior look?

Hi there,

I would recommend checking out our E9X M3 fitment guide to get a better idea as to what different fitments we offer for that chassis. You can find the guide via the following link: https://support.apexraceparts.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001593193-E9x-M3-Wheel-Tire-Fitment-Guide

At the top of the guide (below the first picture) there is a link that says "View all E9X M3 images". That link will take you to our Flickr account, where you can view all of our customer pictures of E9X M3s. You can also filter specifically for ARC-8s if that is the design you are looking to check out.

Most of our fitments for the E9X M3 chassis will not require spacers, and we have quite a few direct fit options in both square and staggered configurations for stock E9X M3's, as well.

If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Just got my EC-7s installed and loving them.

Had a hard time finding stock so ended up with:
18x9.5 with 275/35 front
18x10 with 285/35 rear 12mm spacers

Had these tires which were brand new so running them, realize kinda weird stagger

Rain pics are with 12mm in rear, other pics, no spacer

Lowered on swift springs, 90 mm stud kit. Non ZCP

Looking at a square set of apex wheels 18x10.5 et 22. Will this be an issue in the wheel well in front? I’m running nitron R1s. Any rubbing against the fender liners? Or coilovers? Thanks.

always wanted to try bronze so i got in on the GB

Just purchased a set of Ec-7's in 19x9.5 ET22 and 19x10.5 ET22 per Apex's recommended street performance/track fitment for 19".

After more research, it seems like this isn't too common of a setup. Even finding ps 4s's in 285 30-19 for the rear has been difficult to find.

I prefer the aesthetic look of a staggered setup and 19", and this car will be tracked, so I figured this was a good setup especially since it was recommend for track/street.

Am I missing something why this seems uncommon? And when I say "seems" uncommon this is just from me searching this forum and image searches to see what other people are running.

Note: Stock, non-comp suspension.
ARC 8s, 18x10 et 25, 275/35/18 PS4 tires, lowered on OHLINS...
Plan to run 12mm spacer in rear.

Is a 20mm spacer in the front too much?
