Official Apex Wheels Thread | Forged and Flow Formed wheels for your Cadillac Blackwing

[Apex Wheels]

New wheels you say?

It may be too early to tease; we aren't fully decided on which platforms they will cater to, but I have Cadillacs in mind. I'm hoping to continue supporting and growing our support for the platforms!

That's fair, I can imagine our take rate is less than some of the European brands you sell for. Still, I look forward to seeing what y'all come out with!

Still hoping for Motorsport Gold VS-5RS's

Still hoping for Motorsport Gold VS-5RS's

Sign me up for a 20xwide set for my black BW5 please. I want to stage my white BW4 with black VS5RS's in a group pic in the worst way.

The custom wheel program's progress has slowed as we're concentrating more effort on new wheel designs, some of which I hope to share with you guys soon.

We will try to offer Hyperblack as an option in the future, but right now it's a color more reserved for our flow-formed wheels.

Thank you for the reply. Why are the front offsets different between the VS-5RS 19x10" (ET20) and the VS-5 19x10" (ET25)?

Thank you for the reply. Why are the front offsets different between the VS-5RS 19x10" (ET20) and the VS-5 19x10" (ET25)?

We share some SKUs from other platforms, in this case from BMW, which commonly run the ET25 offset. It happens to fit well on non-Blackwing models, but on Blackwing models it's a little tucked.

I couldn’t be happier! JJ was very helpful and shipping was surprisingly quick. I took this as my wife was putting it in the garage. I’ll take it to a better location and take some better pics. The PS4S’s definitely seem to ride better and quieter than the Cup2’s. It also seems like the steering is more nimble due to the weight.

Beautiful! Anthracite?

Yes, I’ve always loved that color.
Thank you!

Looking great! We'd love to see the followup shots when you take them.

Thanks for picking up a set!

Do you have any plans to offer floating center caps for your wheels?

No plans for floating centercap options from us at the moment. For clarity, are you asking about floating caps with the Apex logo? Or OE-style caps?

I would ideally love Cadillac logos, but I'd opt for Apex logos w/ Apex wheels. Two of my other vehicles have BBS wheels and the floating center caps are a great touch. I love that whenever I look at those vehicles, all of the logos are right side up.

Any pics of the SM 10-RS on the blackwing? None are on the site that I could find

I've not seen any on a Blackwing but there are many pics of this wheel on the CTS-V3.

I sent them pics, they seem to not want to post them. I have them with the stock tires and when those wear out I'm going to +10 on tread width all around to have a more full look.

 

[brewski]

Here’s a few of the pics I took. I know when I was shopping for wheels there weren’t any pics of SM-10RS in the size JJ recommend nor any with stock tires on them to see how the stock size fit on 1/2in wider wheel. Hope these help you.
