Modern Performance, Classic Design
Based on Apex's first ever design that captivated the hearts of BMW drivers across the globe. As the second forged iteration, the ARC-8RT features improved strength, stiffness and weights compared to its flow formed counterpart, while still staying true to the original wheel's timeless design.
Stiffer Spokes
Wheel stiffness matters but it gets overlooked and undiscussed. Our engineers were able to redesign the ARC-8RT with thinner, yet deeper spokes than their flow formed counterparts while still retaining the brake clearance Apex customers expect. The result is a lighter, yet stiffer spoke design.
Sprint Inner Lip
The ARC-8RT borrows the race-proven Sprint Spec inner lip from our Sprint Line wheels, providing critical strength to the unsupported inner lip of the wheel. Adding 32% more material where it matters most. Don't settle for under-engineered wheels, attack both the track and your cities potholes with confidence.

10K Tons of Pressure
To make our forged wheels the strongest we can, we applied as much pressure as possible using a 10,000 ton forge. This extreme pressure increases the strength of the aluminum by eliminating porosity and improving the grain structure.
True Motorsport Blanks
Many companies use 3rd-party blanks intended for non-motorsport wheels which can severely limit sizes, concavity, spoke design, and critical brake clearance. We designed our very own blank profiles from scratch to give us total control over the final product.
Independently Tested
We don't rely solely on computer simulations or unverifiable in-house testing. We believe independent testing is critical to protect consumers in this unregulated industry. Our Touring Line wheels are independently tested by ITS at their Michigan facility following JWL standards but pushed to much higher loads and much longer durations.
Big Brake Clearance
From day one, Apex has been on a mission to build wheels that clear big brakes. We utilize 3D scans to produce vehicle-specific spoke profiles, and our wheels feature an innovative high-clearance barrel design.
Deeper Concavity
Our new forgings enable us to use an extra deep profile 4 face when possible. Our forging blanks allow us to make any profile, from flat to deep and everything in between, each optimized for a specific application using 3D laser scans of factory and aftermarket brake kits.
Built for Impact Sockets
Don't settle for wheels that require undersized tuner lugs or thin walled sockets. All Apex wheels accommodate over-sized race lugs and impact sockets to make swapping wheels lightning fast.

OEM Center Cap Compatibility
Love that OEM+ look? Us too. Our engineers went the extra mile and incorporated OEM center cap support into the ARC-8RT. Whether you want to show off your included Apex center caps or stick with the infamous roundel, the ARC-8RT will seamlessly accept both.
Laser-Engraved Specs
As car enthusiasts ourselves, we know how frustrating it is to locate and decipher wheel specs that have been hastily marked on a wheel or become unreadable over time. Our Touring Line wheels have laser-engraved specs on the barrel, in plain sight, making them easy to find and read.
Additional features
Hub Centric
All Forged Touring Line wheels are purpose built for select vehicle applications. Very few applications require centering rings.
Center Caps
All Apex Forged Touring Line wheels come with our gloss black cap included that is interchangeable with the OE cap. We also offer additional colors for select fitments.
Wheel Hardware
Wherever possible, Apex wheels are designed to be used with OEM mounting hardware as well as high-quality wheel spacers, stud conversion kits, wheel locks, and more. See our Accessories pages.
TPMS
All Apex wheels accept OEM and aftermarket Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors and standard fit valve stems. If you don't have sensors, then select from our metal stems available in multiple finishes.

About Apex Wheels - Real Performance, Proven on Track
Apex Wheels was founded in 2007 by diehard motorsport enthusiasts with a single mission: to create wheels that don't just look the part, but genuinely improve performance in a measurable way. Born on the track and raised in California, Apex's story began not as a business venture, but as a solution to a problem.
Born from a Need, Built for Performance
Founder and CEO Eddy Pintasci couldn't find wheels with the performance profile he needed for his BMW E30 M3 track car - so he built them himself. That wheel became the now legendary ARC-8, and 17 years later Apex has grown into a team of 40+ staff, all sharing the same passion for motorsport that started it all. Eddy still races BMWs as often as possible - racing isn't just marketing at Apex, it's in their DNA.
Cutting Through Industry Noise
The wheel industry is largely unregulated, with performance claims that are commonly unverified, misleading, or outright false. Apex was built to change that. Every Apex wheel is designed by an in-house team of engineers using bespoke forging dies, subjected to rigorous independent testing and certification, and backed by real performance data - not vague buzzwords.
Real Performance, Proven Results
Apex produces lightweight forged and flow-formed wheels with specifications tailored for drivers seeking genuine performance upgrades. Stronger, lighter, and with an unmatched performance-to-price ratio, every Apex wheel is designed to deliver measurable improvements on track and on road. When you understand what makes a true high-performance wheel, the choice becomes obvious.
