Apex Wheels Survey for Emira (and Evora) Owners

[gcmak]

If you're in the market, Apex wheels is looking for feedback on what the Emira and Evora community wants. They recently 3D scanned a V6 and i4 Emira and are hoping to come out with some options in the coming months, with even more options next year if there's demand.

Feel free to share with other owners who you may know. Thanks!

Thanks for sharing this. I know the guys at Apex and they are a great bunch of car guys. I've also purchased their wheels for my Carrera T and they are absolutely a known quantity in the Porsche/BMW/Corvette/Mustang (and many others) space.

What makes them so good? They only put out OEM or better quality stuff, but find a way to keep the cost way down. For example, for the 991.2 911 (my Carrera T), the aftermarket wheel community, pretty much gave this 911 model the finger, because all wheel manufacturers blew there wad on the 991.1 model run (yes, offsets were materially different, blame Porsche). Apex saw this huge gap and addressed it with their VS-5RS wheel (https://apexwheels.com/vehicles/por...Size=20x9-et41&rearQty=2&rearSize=20x115-et72).

Their wheels are super light in comparison to the market (for forged aluminum, not Magnesium) and super durable. How do I know? because I tracked the crap out of them regularly and I'm a curb hog! The wheels remain as straight as they were out of the box.

Long winded way of saying, yeah, I'm in and hope they do a small run for the Emira. If you don't believe me, check-out all the other car forums and what people say about Apex. Lastly, please share this with as many people as possible as I can't understate how great it would be if we had a wheel offering for our Emira's from them.

APEX wheels are fantastic, as is the team at APEX. They are a group of true enthusiasts. I've run their wheels on a number of my cars over the past several years. The great thing about the APEX guys is that they pay incredible attention to detail. Rather than producing a compromised wheel that doesn't give people exactly what they want, they take the time to do their homework and really optimize their wheels for performance, fitment, and style (as evidenced by this thread, the survey, etc.). The fitment on their wheels has been absolutely killer, the finish impeccable, extremely lightweight, huge brake caliper clearance, etc. The little details like the laser etchings, fitting OEM center caps, space for different lug nuts/bolts, mill work on the sides of the spokes, etc. all make these feel like they should cost more than they do. I did receive one damaged wheel, which was the shipper's fault, and APEX instantly made it right with a replacement. I've owned many different brands of wheels on many different cars over the years, and these wheels are a huge bang-for-the-buck at their current prices!

Below are some of my cars sporting APEX wheels. I'm currently in the process of buying an Evora GT, and will surely have APEX at the top of my list if they do release wheels for the Evora/Emira.

APEX ML-10RT in Motorsport Gold on my '07 Cayman S

APEX SM-10 in Race Silver on my e90 335i sedan

APEX VS-5RS in Anthracite on my Model 3 Performance

Fingers crossed they do a run of their lightest wheels.
