Which Apex wheels?
Hey guys, Finally decided to go with Apex wheels, just wanted to get your opinions on the Arc-9 or the Ec-7, getting them in 19's, will I need spacers to make it flush?

the arc-8's are lighter however the ec-7 has a spoke design that makes it look more concave which looks nicer.
for the ec-7 i'd do anthracite front 19x8.5, et35, face profile 1, with 245/35/19, no spacer, almost flush rear 19x9, et 35, face profile 2, with 255/35/19, no spacer, almost flush michelin pilot super sport or bridgestone potenza s-04 this setup almost approaches square and reduces much of the understeer but it retains the staggered look where the front tires are narrower and the rear wheels having more concave. |

you could definitely do 265. i recommended 255 on 9" wide for best handling/performance by being almost square. 265 increases weight, width, overall diameter and stagger which changes the handling/performance slightly but you probably wouldn't notice it.
if you do 265 you could also get the EC-7 in 19x9.5,et33, profile face 3 more more concavity in the rears, that'll look good. also, i've read through your thread on the bc coils but haven't posted there. personally i'd go with BMW M-performance suspension which is a 10mm drop or 20mm if you only have a base suspension. if that's not low enough, i've read more positive reviews with KW, although it costs more.
