Apex SM-10 Anthracite 9x19 square

On Friday I received the Apex SM-10 Anthracite 9x19 in square configuration, with fresh 255/35 P4S rubber.

With this setup I was able to eliminate my 10mm wheel spacers and I really like the fitment and look overall. Previous setup was the OEM 792M wheel (8"F, 8.5"R) with Pzero non-run flat. Grip with the 255's all-around is excellent on initial testing.

I would like a 20mm lowering, but still debating if I want to deal with the lower ground clearance issues.

Very Nice! I also got the squared setup, but with the silver finish.

I will be mounting Michelin pilot sport cup 2 tires and will be my dedicated summer tire set.

Thanks can't wait to see the silver's too. Those cup2's will grip like crazy. I will be using Conti Extreme's for the colder months on the OEM wheels.

They look great!

(And I was wondering if those were ET28, but then I saw them in Apex's helpful guide

Love the look of these SM-10s on your G42. Mind if I host this pic on our website? We're happy to link to your social media and/or provide photo credits.

I'm falling behind on my usual thread tasks. I'll try and get a Gallery thread up shortly so we can have these photos in a single thread and add this car as well.

Enjoy the SM-10s!

-Tom

Are the Cup 2's for the street? How are you going to get heat in them?

@jbazz I just mounted up a square set as well with 255s. What tire pressures are you running?

Yep, they are hub-centric and compatible with your OE wheel bolts as long as you aren't using spacers.
