I've been contemplating getting these wheels and had the same thought on the brushed clear. I must be old school coz I too am finding it looks great on the blue.

but the practical side of me wants the anthracite coz of the maintenance.

They're currently running a group buy offer on these wheels right now. Depending on how they do, people might get 400 bucks off of them so worth checking them out as i'd been eyeing them up for months!

Awesome, thanks for the heads up.

How does one get on that GB though ? Post up a link if you have one. I checked their website and didn’t see anything mentioned…

PS while I’m digging the brushed clear look (it’s a solid classic) - I’m contemplating on the gold finish to go along w/ my Hockenheim Silver but I am yet to see anyone rocking this combo…also wondering how this shade of gold compares with the OEM gold 763s.

Here you go mate - https://www.gangup.com/apex/19-forge...s-q1-2023.html

They're running 18's and 19's group buys, think you can navigate both through the link. If not, just check their instagram story out. They've got links for them in there.

I think for international shipping its only 75 dollars off rather than free shipping but the potential discount for these wheels are a no brainer I think. The performance gain/looks are very tempting!

Is this stock suspension? Any more photos? Thanks!

I'm in on the group buy for these, and I really want the brushed clear but I would love to know the answer to the question above. How is brake dust on these?

I mean I don't want to clean the car every 10 minutes

If you want your wheels to look clean, anthracite is probably the best color. The stock pads shed a reddish brown dust that will definitely be more obvious on bright wheels. At least they're easier to clean than the M2C 788M wheels.

That's true and I agree with you but the brushed clear looks so good lol. Anyone have experience ceramic coating these and how easy they are to clean once you do?

I still need to pledge. I’m torn between the practical and the brushed clear also on my LLB but also don’t want to see it looking too dirty.

Hey, did the shaping of the liner work at full lock? Thanks

Yes, it was not too hard to do with a heat gun. If anything, it's too easy to melt it, I should have been a little more careful.

I'm assuming these are the satin black....and not the anthracite.

Those are black. The the Apex anthracite is like halfway between silver and dark grey.

Love looking at the new AP Racing nickel plated finish under Satin Black VS-5RS.

Pledged! Anthracite 5RS

Pledged and excited for my 19x9.5 and 19x10.5 VS-5RS Satin Blacks for my M2 CS.

Checking in with the 19" VS-5RS on LBB! Looks absolutely beautiful, the finish paired with the blue.
