I�m sure I overlooked it, but I couldn�t find what the 18� NB fit wheels weigh?

Scratch that, I found it. Carry on

Wow....great looking wheels! I will have to consider....I suppose having one more set of wheels isn't a bad thing, is it? Need some new tires for the rear.....I could just put them on new wheels!

Thank you for the kind words! Even if you're just considering, officially pledging your interest in the deal is harmless. You'll never have to pay more than your pledged amount. Please let me know if I can help or if you have any further questions! Underneath the deal overview tab inside the SM-10 specification table, details can be seen HERE .

looks great weight and offsets look good. any plans for bronze/gold?

The I beam spokes and anti slip knurled bead have me very interested in buying a set. If offered in bronze, I�d have to put my money on the line. I�m still leaning this way for my autocross / HPDE wheels.

We'll only be offering the SM-10 in our three known finishes - Race Silver, Satin Black, and Anthracite. Various finishes and optional choices have never been offered by us. Offering this lightweight and strong design in aggressive specifications that allow enthusiasts to run their desired tire size(s) and compound without performing extensive modifications is key. We want to solve the community pain points, filling voids in the marketplace. Chasing finishes to meet ever changing aesthetic preferences is not the fight we want to fight. The other issue with various color choices would be our wheel replacement program - where if your APEX's endure ANY damage whatsoever (on track or otherwise) you can return the wheel and are eligible to purchase the same wheel at a 50% discount. This would be difficult to do if we do not have the speciality color in stock or painted. With this said, other finishes that are met with ample community-wide support can be produced in the future. Thank you for your interest! If you haven't done so already, please feel free to officially pledge your interest. It is risk free and you're not obligated to purchase your selected set if your desired discount tier is not met. Keep in mind that preferences and delivery timing are prioritized and shipped in the order that official pledges are received. Let me know if you have any additional questions or comments!

Officially pledged after learning about your replacement policy. Since we are selling our house soon I put my work address for shipping. I can�t wait to get the call complaining about a large delivery..... oh well.

I purchased a set for my e36 recently and just mounted track tires on them. The wheels were excellent and the group buy worked out very well (received maximum discount). I would be buying a set for my 996 if I am not in the middle of new kitchen, college tuition, and suspension overhaul......

We are selling our house to get a new house (new construction) which involves putting things in storage, lots of repairs, staging, find short term housing, etc. I didn�t let it stop me. We pay a private school tuition too

Wish we could do '17 too

Excellent news, thank you! Please let me know if you have any further questions in any stages of the Group Buy . Always great to see a fellow enthusiast put our wheels up to the test on another platform and share their success story. Thanks for your continual support, and I look forward to working with you in the future. After our 18" and 19" wheels are released to the community, we will explore feasibility of 17" wheels. There is support for 17" Porsche-specific APEX wheels amongst SPB (Spec Boxster ) racers. Timing has yet to be determined, but we certainly plan to produce wheels compliant with that series and for other chassis who may benefit from that smaller diameter. Of course we'd love to produce and push wheels as quickly as some unregulated fly-by-night wheel companies, but that's where the differences reveal themselves in the wheel industry. Delivering a wheel that is tried and tested with superior engineering to withstand continual track abuse takes precedence. _________________ Our Group Buy is kicking along. Showing your interest is harmless as it does not bind you to anything. Configure your desired set, select your preferred discount tier, and encourage fellow enthusiasts to join to obtain the largest discount!

Thank you for your participation thus far, everyone! We're on the road to hit the maximum discount if everyone pledges their interest. With a little over one month remaining, take advantage of the largest discounts that we'll ever offer. For other enthusiasts that haven't done so already - configure your set, select your preferences, and join the gang! Once you’ve shown your interest, you must come back and “pledge” your interest to secure your desired set(s) on the Group Buy page . Submitting interest without pledging doesn’t reserve you any product - it just lets you stay in touch with the deal; similar to watching an eBay auction. With the ability to choose your discount tier, there is no risk to pledging and no reward from waiting. We’re allocating sets and shipping them in the order pledges are received, so pledging early is recommended. Our latest APEX blog post sheds some light on the SM-10's knurled bead. Check it out HERE !

Now is the time to show your interest and submit your pledge in our pre-order Group Buy . Although you have until 6/28 to officially submit your pledge, getting your pledge in before the payment phase opens is recommended. The payment phase opens in one week and will run through Thursday 6/28 at 11:59PDT. We typically see an influx of pledges during the payment phase as it is the last opportunity to participate in this deal. Keep in mind that we’re allocating inventory and shipping product in the order of which pledges are received.

Our Group Buy payment phase is here! This is your last opportunity to participate in this Group Buy. Click here to join! A note to those that clicked �I�m Interested� during the feeler phase, this does not mean you are part of this deal. You must submit your pledge to guarantee your spot and have an impact on the discount tiers. We typically see a rush of buyers in the payment phase of every Group Buy, and with the ability to choose your own minimum required discount, there is no risk in pledging. Your order will not be processed unless we reach your desired discount level. Get your pledge in today to secure your preferred finish and receive our first batch of APEX Porsche wheels months before others. We�ve constructed our 18� Porsche SM-10 to fit the enormous 380mm rotor, 6-piston Porsche Carbon Ceramic Brakes (PCCB). With 450RWHP, the SM-10�s knurled bead minimizes unwanted tire rotation, the reinforced inner lip combats its rear weight bias, and the I-beam spoke concavity ensures proper weight distribution and a stunning appearance. This 987.2 is outfitted with 18x9� ET46 front and 18x10� ET36 rear SM-10 wheels which are wrapped in 255/35-18 front and 275/35-18 rear Toyo R888 tires. This wheel and tire combination is complemented by KW Clubsport coilovers and Tarett suspension components.

Do we know the current discount based on all of the pledges?

The deal has successfully reached the max discount tier off $300 off + Free Shipping*. We will continue accepting pledges/orders until the deal closes tonight, at 11:59 PM PST. Congratulations to everyone who joined! Join The Deal Here

Closing Update The deal was a success with just over 75 pledges and the max discount tier reached. We received enough demand to produce all proposed wheel fitments in almost all finish options. We’re currently working on final allocations and invoicing which will be complete by tomorrow. Please note the following fitments will not be available in Race Silver due to very low demand: SM-10 18x11” ET60 SM-10 18x12” ET45 SM-10 18x12” ET65 If you picked one of these sizes in Race Silver and selected no backup option then you’ll get an email or call from one of us. Many people change their mind when deciding between cancelling their order vs accepting an alternative finish. We’d like to give the few of you affected by this a final chance to reconsider. If you selected a backup finish for these sizes, no further action is required, and you’ll see which backup color you’re getting on your final invoice. Those invoices will go out very soon. Thank you for your participation, and we look forward to getting wheels into your hands. - Ryan

I'm really looking forward to seeing the final product in my hands come September. This is going to prove to have been a fantastic deal for everyone that got in early. $300 off and free shipping is a huge discount.
