Default APEX | Flow Formed Lightweight 5x100 Subaru Wheels - Built to Perform




APEX Flow Formed 5x100 Subaru Wheels

For over 13 years, APEX has been the go-to wheel for track enthusiasts and club racers looking for the perfect balance between strength, weight, and cost. APEX wheels address the concerns of more and more car enthusiasts: long term durability, optimized chassis-specific fitments, and enhancing performance. Whether you are are a street customer looking to upgrade your stock wheels, or a hardcore track enthusiast/racer who needs wheels that can withstand track abuse, we have you covered.


Perfect fit without spacers

Designed to clear factory GR/GV STI Brembo BBK & a variety of aftermarket BBKs

100% OEM compatibility, no extra hardware required

Unbeatable warranty & 50% replacement program




Designs, Finishes, & Specifications



Size: 17x9” ET42
Bolt Pattern: 5x100mm
Center Bore: 56.1mm
Weight: 17.8 lbs
VIA Registration: VIA-23-1700
MSRP: $269.00 ea.





Fit Matters



The right solution for every application.

An optimized car setup begins with the perfect wheel and tire fitment. Without model-specific attention to each wheels specifications, maximum performance is compromised. The ARC-8 enhances Subaru owners’ track day or street performance experience by achieving the right balance between a clean fit and the most grip possible. These wheels were developed exclusively for Subaru chassis in a square configuration which promotes a neutral handling experience while allowing drivers to efficiently rotate wheels and tires on all four corners of the car. This dramatically reduces the cost of tires over time. Simply put, our wheel was designed for long-term durability without sacrificing performance and fit, while also adhering to APEX’s mission of maximizing value. Corner carving & track enthusiasts: this is your wheel.


A lot of Brake Clearance in a Tight Space


Engineered to clear factory GR/GV STI Brembo brakes, as well as a variety of aftermarket BBK’s.

Our wheels are targeted at the serious performance-minded owner knowing many will elect to upgrade the basic OE caliper and disc setup as they get more serious with mods. If you do go with a big brake kit (BBK), many kits that clear 17” wheels will fit behind our low profile spokes without spacers, although some applications may need a thin spacer due to the added width of aftermarket calipers.


Weight Optimized



We conducted extensive Finite Element Analysis to reinforce high-stress areas and to remove material where it didn’t improve strength. The end result is a flow formed wheel with an ideal balance of strength and weight.

True VIA - JWL & Beyond


Many companies promote their wheels as being certified by the VIA when they actually aren’t. That’s like using the USDA logo on food without permission. APEX wheels get officially tested and registered by the VIA in Japan, and we have the proof to back it up. Japan’s JWL is a standard for wheel load ratings. Our wheels exceed those ratings. Most manufacturers only meet the minimum, while some even fall below—yet they still claim to be JWL. Always verify load ratings before you buy. Learn more about VIA and JWL

Additional Features


Hub Centric - All APEX Subaru wheels with a 5x100mm bolt pattern are purpose built featuring a 56.1mm center bore. No centering rings required.

Center Caps - We don't charge extra for caps and we design our Subaru wheels to be interchangeable with the OE cap for enthusiasts seeking a clean factory look. All wheels come with our gloss Black APEX caps included.

Hardware - APEX wheels can be used with all OEM mounting hardware, proper aftermarket hardware and wheel spacers. Wheel locks and stud conversion kits also work perfectly.

TPMS - All APEX wheels accept OEM and aftermarket Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors and standard fit valve stems. If your vehicle isn’t equipped with sensors or you choose to bypass them for your track/race car, then select from our metal stems available in multiple finishes.


Unbeatable Support


Warranty: All APEX wheels come with a lifetime structural warranty and 1 year finish warranty, so you can be confident in your purchase. Learn more

Replacement program: Let’s face it: Whether you are a weekend warrior practicing at the track, a club racer pushing the limit for a podium finish, or your daily commute involves crater-ridden minefields known as city roads, mistakes happen and parts will be damaged along the way. We are not really a performance company if we sell wheels in a way that penalizes the pursuit of driving at the limit. For this reason, we stepped up and created a program to significantly reduce the costs of properly maintaining a set of wheels by making replacements extremely affordable.

Our unique APEX360° Wheel Replacement Program offers eligible customers replacement wheels at 50% off our standard prices. Learn more



Chassis-Specific Fitment Guides



We know what fits. From direct bolt-on to all-out race fitments and everything in between. We've street and track tested extensively to save you the trial-and-error.

LEARN MORE ABOUT APEX
For those whom we have not yet had the pleasure of working with, since 2007, our focus at APEX has been to produce high-performance wheels with extreme durability and unprecedented value for the performance driving community. Combining proven Motorsport design features, vehicle specific optimizations, and advanced flow forming and forging technology, we've created wheels that have taken BMW performance driving enthusiasts by storm. As a grassroots Motorsport oriented company, comprised of a diverse group of auto enthusiasts, we understand that enthusiasts from all corners of the car community seek quality products at an affordable price point, and that these should not be mutually exclusive.


YOU ARE IN THE DRIVERS SEAT
APEX does not view the car community through a traditional lens. Since inception, this company has worked hand in hand with enthusiasts through many channels, but much of what we have accomplished stems from our unique ability to incorporate forum members into product development. Rather than sitting around a conference table internally brainstorming a list of products that we feel are relevant to a specific community, we have made it our mission to enlist enthusiasts in the decision making process. Tell us where the market is currently missing the mark for you, and how we can employ our core competencies to fill the current pitfalls. The action of putting enthusiasts at the forefront of product development ensures that APEX delivers satisfactory products.


THE BIGGER PICTURE
We guarantee a different customer experience. Car nuts come in all shapes and sizes, and it is imperative to recognize that enthusiasts have different priorities, as well as short and long term goals for their machines. It is not until our product specialists have completed a needs assessment, that we can suggest a valuable and meaningful solution to our customers. Anything less would be a disservice. Manufacturing wheels that complement the multitude of suspension, brakes, alignment settings and tires specifications instills confidence in our customer interactions.


SHOW US WHAT YOU CAN DO!
“All of this sounds great, but show me what you can do.” When track enthusiasts took delivery of their new BMW F8X M3/M4, they quickly realized that the standard 10” rear wheels were not cutting it, regardless of how sticky their 275mm wide tires were. Drivers had to cautiously modulate the throttle out of mid-corner with the threat of upsetting the car, and therefore lap times were not an accurate depiction of what this new powerful platform was capable of. Correspondence poured in from the community, and after some validation from the community, a lightweight EC-7 18x11” ET44 was born. A strong 18" wheel that offered enough brake clearance for the massive OEM BBK, check. Precise and proven width and offset to support a 305 or 315 r-compound or slick without extensive modifications, check!

The following article should give you an insight into our process, and our devotion to the details: APEX Test Fitment - Squeezing a 315 R-Compound onto a stock F8X

In that spirit, we'd love to hear from you - the Subaru community. Start by having a one-on-one fitment consultation with an APEX specialist, or simply provide us with feedback in regards to new fitments, designs, or finishes that you would like to see from us.

We've taken the time to figure out what fits and what doesn't so you don't have to. We have nearly every available tire listed as well as fitment information for a variety of aftermarket BBKs.
