{"product_id":"arc-8-flow-formed-wheel","title":"ARC-8 Flow Formed Wheel","description":"The Apex ARC-8 is a flow-formed wheel, part of Apex's Classic line, offering a blend of timeless aesthetics and raw performance. The flow forming process improves the wheel barrel's mechanical properties and grain structure, leading to increased strength and stiffness. This allows for the use of less material, resulting in a lighter wheel with a higher load rating than some competitors' forged wheels.\n\nThe ARC-8 is engineered to accommodate many large brake kits, even with its classic deep-concave spoke design. For applications requiring even more clearance, Apex offers the forged ARC-8R or wheels with curved spokes. The wheel utilizes two distinct concave face profiles, with the deepest one offering reduced weight and an aggressive appearance, all while factoring in critical brake caliper clearances. Extensive Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was employed to reinforce high-stress areas and optimize material usage for an ideal balance of strength and weight.\n\nDesigned for track use, the ARC-8 accommodates oversized race lugs and impact sockets, facilitating quick wheel changes. The Race Silver finish is applied via a multi-stage liquid paint over a powder-coated base coat, ensuring that lug holes, center bores, and mounting pads remain untouched for proper fit and torque values. All APEX Flow Formed wheels meet or exceed JWL load rating requirements, emphasizing critical strength. This wheel is presented as a universal fitting product.","brand":"APEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52686934343992,"sku":"ARC81885ET45-5120-7256","price":379.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/660182831.webp?v=1784878629","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/arc-8-flow-formed-wheel","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
