ARC-8 18x9" 42mm Offset 5x120mm Race Silver Alloy Wheel

The APEX ARC-8 alloy wheel, presented here in a 18" x 9" size with a 42mm offset and a 5x120mm bolt pattern, is engineered for enhanced performance. Its Race Silver finish and 72.56mm hub-centric bore contribute to a precise fit and aesthetic appeal. This wheel is constructed using a Flow Form process, which enhances the barrel's mechanical properties for increased strength and stiffness, allowing for reduced material and weight without compromising load ratings. The ARC-8 is designed with significant brake clearance in mind, accommodating many large brake kits even with its deep-concave spoke design. APEX prioritizes concavity, utilizing two unique profiles to achieve the deepest possible concave face while maintaining critical clearances, resulting in a reduced weight and aggressive appearance. Extensive Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was employed to optimize the design, reinforcing high-stress areas and removing unnecessary material for a lightweight yet strong wheel. The finishing process involves a multi-stage liquid paint over a powder-coated base, ensuring that crucial areas like lug holes and mounting pads remain untouched for proper torque values. The ARC-8 meets or exceeds JWL load rating requirements and is True VIA certified by an independent auditing agency. All ARC-8 wheels are purpose-built for select vehicle applications, typically eliminating the need for centering rings. They are compatible with OEM and aftermarket wheel hardware, spacers, wheel locks, stud conversion kits, and TPMS sensors.
