That's what I was hoping. I'm really somewhat nervous about the 245's rubbing, but I'm going to take APEX's word for it that they are a direct fit. I know all tires are different (I got Hankook Ventus V12's) but I'm REALLY hoping that I don't run into any issues.

Just got mine installed, Anthracite on Hankook Ventus V12 245/40/17's. Fitment looks great, although the rear camber needs to be adjusted slightly. I love these wheels so much, I was worried how the Anthracite color would look on a black BRZ, but I think it looks great.

I got mine as well, though I picked up another member's groupbuy order since I missed the initial offer. Three wheels have 245 40 17 RS3 V2s mounted on them right out. One of them came with a paint blemish, so it's still in the box, but Apex has been a bit slow in communicating on a possible exchange. They don't even pick up the phone, which really sucks since track season is like right now. In addition, one of the wheels has a slight wobble as well on the balancer, which I can probably zero out a bit more. We'll see how it does in the rear at speed.
Edit: Apex agreed to replace the blemished wheel. Yay!

^ Absolutely beautiful! Did you get those wheels in the group buy? How's the fitment? Any rubbing?

Fantastic looking wheel! I love the silver wheel on a white car. I didnt have my car back when the groupbuy took place, I certainly would have jumped on it.
What was the group buy price? Right now I am considering the RPF1 for roughly the same price as these wheels. RPF1 is ~2 lbs lighter but these wheels sure look awesome! |

I asked Apex if these rims fit the 2017 BRZ with Performance Package Brembos. They replied they fit no problem!

Sorry for the crappy pictures. Better ones to come once I can detail the car and the weather clears up. I am loving the whiteline camberbolts, Apex ARC-8, and RCE yellows combo. Perfect setup for the daily imo.
