► Official APEX VW SM-10 Flow Formed Wheel Thread

[APEXWheels]

Pre-weekend Group Buy update just went out to everyone participating in the deal. Today's topic was on the Macan BBK and the steps we took to ensure these wheels would clear without spacers. I'm sure some of you that have been following this thread since the beginning can recall when we first teased those pictures.

For those of you not participating in the Group Buy, you can check out the latest technical update in our vendor thread here: Official APEX VW SM-10 Group Buy Thread

Have a great weekend everyone!

@APEXWheels are you able to share the current count of people ordering 17" to 18" wheels right now? There's not been many 18" photos and most of the hype is for the 17", feel like I'm goofin going with 18".

I'm late to this Group buy. What sizes are left? Are there any Photos of Bronze on White Silver Metallic GTI?

There’s only photos with the pure white so far (for white cars). I myself have a WSM and chose bronze though. I think it’ll look nice.

Just pledged for the 17x8.5 Bronze Wheels. Do we know which OEM VW center caps will fit on these wheels?

The wheels will fit the older 66mm center caps. No plans at this time to offer 55mm center cap compatibility.

@APEXWheels Around how many days after the group buy ends, do you think the first orders ship? Also, will orders be fulfilled in the order in which the pledges were made?

Plenty of availability left in the first production run. You guys have been doing a great job balancing out sizes and finish options and not going too hard on a particular SKU.

Once the Group Buy closes, we typically need around a week to finalize and process everyone's orders. During this time is when we will reach out to anyone who potentially won't be able to get their first preference. Orders will be fulfilled in the order that the pledges were made. As I have said before, our Group Buys are "first come, first serve"!

The first production run is expected to arrive sometime in mid-late May. Once the wheels show up at our warehouse, we will be able to turn everything around and start shipping out orders. We are hoping to have everything shipped out before the end of May as long as there are no delays when the boat shows up at the port.

The latest Group Buy update has just been sent out! Today, we were able to officially announce our new partnership with Easthood Racing. For those of you not participating in the Group Buy, you can learn all about EHR, both of their MK7 racecars, and what SM-10 setups they plan to run, over on our vendor thread here.

Enjoy!

For those of us looking for more bling, that means these caps will work too.

So the caps we have on oem wheels will fit?

Correct. I tested the OEM VW centercaps that were on my 17" GSW's factory wheels and they fit no problem. I will take some pictures tonight and post them here a bit later.
