Ready for the Winter and Thank you Apex

I want to say thank you to Apex for making 18" wheels to fit my F30 with M performance brakes! I am liking these wheels so much that I might get a set of 19"s for my summer tires!

I just bought a set of silver 18" EC-7s for my 335i - they'll be my year-round wheels. Anxious to get rid of my runflat tires and am replacing them with Conti DW non-runflats.

These were the 18" Apex RC-7 on Pirelli Sottozero RSC. I dont know why everyone is hating on run-flats. I am indifferent to them. I know one thing for sure though. These Pirellis were sticky as hell in NYC's latest rainstorm!

Because they ride hard, they get noisier as they wear, don't last very long, and if you do get a flat, nobody wants to repair them because of the liability involved. That means if you have 50% wear left on the other tire on the opposite side of the car, you have to replace both tires at a higher price than non-runflats.

Nice looking car
Is your set-up staggered? Do you mind sharing wheel offsets and tire sizes? Thanks!
