I just want it to be flat w/ the fender just a little bit more—like 5mm.

We don't offer lower offset versions of those wheels so for what you have in mind spacers are the best way to get what you're looking for.

Alternatively, you could run a wider wheel like our 19x9.5 ET28 +19x10.5 et45 but I generally recommend running wider tires when you go down that route to take advantage of the increased wheel width.

These satin finished wheels look fantastic. Do you happen to have any photos of the satin gold on LBB?

Not an M2 - but M2 fitment specs!

Sorry for the delayed reply. I don't have any of motorsport gold (the satin version), but we had a limited edition Gloss Gold finish that was the same base paint color as Motorsport Gold but with a gloss clear coat instead of satin:


We only made 2 sets of this fitment and this car is on one of them.

The other set is still in stock if anyone is interested in a discounted set of M2 wheels. The wheels are 19x9 ET30 front and 19x10 ET40 rear, the OE-style fitment.

It was a limited production color so the downside is replacements aren't going to be available in the same color in the future if you damage a wheel, but I'm offering 10% off the set + free shipping to the lower 48 US states if anyone is interested in a gloss set identical to the one pictured above. Email expert@apexwheels.com with your address and Gloss Gold M2 in the subject line for a quote.


In other news, a unique fitment has been added to the VS-5RS range. We added an 18x10 ET40 VS-5RS for OG M2 owners or those Competition owners that have switched to aftermarket kits with smaller diameter rotors.

This offset is a direct replica of the factory rear 19x10 ET40. It can be used in the rear easily for staggered 18" fitments, but it can also work well as a rotatable square fitment if used on the front with spacers and potentially camber depending on the tire size and model.

I don't have any photos of these wheels on car at the moment, but you can check them out on our site here: https://apexwheels.com/wheels/forged...ize=18x10-et40

Lastly, I should mention we've updated our website. A ton of changes and reworks have gone into the switch and we're excited about the potential on this new platform. If you haven't yet taken a look, feel free to check out our M2 specific configurator or gallery pages.

Thanks everyone!

Why are there no 10mm spacers available?

10mm spacers either lack a hubcentric ring or are slightly wider than 10mm with a compromised chamfer design to support the hubcentric ring. A true 10mm spacer has no room for a hubcentric ring without a large chamfer to provide the strength needed for the ring. Those chamfers have to be mirrored on the inner mounting face of the wheel and because they are oversized would reduce the engagement of the wheels on the hubcentric ring/OE hub for anyone not using a 10mm spacer. Some 10mm spacers on the market have a chamfer large enough to prevent the wheel from fully seating against the rotor mounting pad which can lead to premature hardware failure.

12mm spacers provide enough material to let us incorporate a moderate chamfer and fully support all of our wheels without compromises.

[Expert@ApexWheels]

Introducing the all new Apex Forged Enduro Line. Designed to withstand the combined stresses of extra sticky tires, crazy downforce, fast drivers, and inevitable mistakes. Available in two designs at launch. The VS-5RE and SM-10RE are strength optimized versions of our popular lightweight designs. Priced similarly to our Sprint line wheels, every enthusiast can choose which version is best for their needs.

Part of our commitment to Real Performance, these are our strongest and most durable wheels, with dramatically higher load ratings, stiffer spokes, and tougher lips than ever before.
There’s a constant industry push for lighter wheels, but if saving weight is the top priority then strength and stiffness can be compromised. We see it often in the pursuit of lower advertised weights, and many cars end up ill-equipped as a result. The reality is that all enthusiasts could benefit from stronger and stiffer wheels, while some critically require it.

Visit our website to place your pre-order now, wheels are set to arrive beginning in May. 25% deposit is required to reserve a set with Free Shipping for pre-orders included.
