► APEX | 18x11” EC-7 Track Wheel Group Buy — Up to $200 off a set!

Joined feeler

I was planning to order Forgestar CF5s in 18" x 11" 52mm offset to clear my new 15" brake package with plans to run a 15mm hub-centric spacer up front. However, I prefer the appearance of the Apex wheel. My only concern is that they won't be available until July and I have no track wheels that will fit. I will wait if the $200 discount is reached.

I already have deep concave EC7s in 18" x 11" on my project truck and they look to be great quality.

I have joined in and will be giving the 21 car and rebirthday present in July with some new 18x11 wheels. Thanks Apex for serving the Mustang track day community.

Damn, those are some heart breaking pictures :'(

Agree, sad pics.
Glad the 21 will be back.

Steve, sad to see those pictures. Hope you and car get back up to speed asap.


APEX-- this is great news but I'm bummed these are face 2 wheels. Was there not enough hub pad available or brake clearance with face 3s?

Steve, Thank you for posting, as hard as it must of been to do so. These pictures keep a strong reminder of the dark side of running your baby at the track and pushing your car and skill limits to have fun. It all can end so quickly. Thank god (if you believe) that you walked away and the car can be restored in time.
Your post of these pictures keep it real for anyone running there car at the track. The part that makes my eyes wide open is FIRE.
Even that the car has come to a stop your damage is still happing at a very rapid speed and your helpless. Rescue crew did a great job in responding.

Again I'm glad your OK!!

Let's hope VIR considers a few gravel traps like Road America has.

I would prefer to use a tow hook before a fire extinguisher any day.

I second that. I have seen 3 other grass fires at VIR over the past 4 years so it was not a freak thing. The weather in November and February has been very favorable but the grass is so dry in winter that it catches right up. I also kick myself for removing the fire extinguisher I had mounted on the passenger seat. When I pulled the seat I did not remount it to the floor. Stupid mistake.

 

[steveespo]

Can't wait for 18x11 Apex wheels!!!!

 

[Black Boss]

Only just saw this. Very sad photos and just bad luck, but another reminder of the importance of safety equipment.

Good luck with the rebuild, Steve.

 

[Apex Wheels]

Steve, those photo's are nothing short of gut wrenching. Glad you were able to walk away despite the damage, and very cool that you are getting "back on the horse" after she is rebuilt. We greatly appreciate your support.

Hey Neema, thanks for the kind words. In regards to the face profile, you are correct. The width and offset best lends itself to a profile 2 face, which still has a decent amount of concavity. Brake clearance and structural integrity were first priority

 

[ArizonaBOSS]

Damn those pics are nasty, @steveespo Looking forward to seeing her all back together again

Alright folks, we've got interest in just over 100 units/wheel so far. Share the deal with your track buddies and fellow enthusiasts to ensure this deal comes to fruition!

Aside from the cortex offset coilovers (since we already know they provide the most inner clearance), what suspensions would you like to see us test? In the BMW world, we have our go-to list which does a really good job covering a vast majority of BMW track enthusiasts, and I'd like to confirm my suspicions on which suspension systems are most popular within this portion of the Mustang community.

I run JRZ coilovers personally. I can be persuaded to bring the s197 racecar and s550 street car for testing

We are on your way to Thunderhill, Sonoma, and Laguna... take your pick JRZ's are certainly on the list, thanks for the feedback.

What else do you guys run?

 

[TymeSlayer]

Does anyone know how far out of the wheel well, if any these will stick out of my 2012 Boss?

 

[TMSBOSS]

What tires can be mounted with these wheels and stock suspension??

 

[Fabman]

The should fit perfectly. No stick out.
