17" VS-5RS fitments are coming in August! Unfortunately no news just yet on 18" fitments, however we will continue tracking demand.

Would you be able to PM me some recommended Canadian dealers? Trying to avoid steep courier fee from shipping US.

Also, will the dealers have 20% of as well?

Thanks!

I've been waiting patiently, hoping that they look as good on the Twin as they do on the M2...

What's the odds of more of the 17x9" ET42 Anthracite APEX EC-7R Forged coming into stock any time soon?

We are phasing out the existing EC-7R forged wheel design in favor of our new Forged Sprint Line of wheels, so the remaining stock (on sale!) is the last of it.

To be clear the outgoing EC-7R is still a stellar forged wheel, so our clearance sale is a great opportunity to get a set of very strong forged wheels with great BBK clearance optimized for the 86/BRZ chassis. With that said, over the last two years our engineers have been working on developing custom forging dies which allows us to further optimize our forged wheel designs, so we are now releasing the next generation of APEX forged wheel designs.

The VS-5RS is the first forged wheel design that we will be releasing for the 86/BRZ community in June, but we have more exciting lightweight designs coming through the pipeline in 2022.


For those curious to learn more, here is an in-depth video about our new Forged Sprint Line and how they truly deliver functional features expected from a motorsport wheel.

We plan to launch these wheels with an upcoming Group Buy in a few months. We have a number of dealers in Canada that may be able to assist with purchasing a set. You can view your options here: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?m...7123890784&z=5

JRP is generally able to ship wheel sets within Canada as well.

Our Group Buys also include a flat discount on shipping cost for international shipments which makes purchasing the wheels directly more affordable.

Do we know yet, or could you tell us the difference between face profile two and face profile three on the VS-5RS? I’m sure face profile three is more concave, but do you have any images that show the difference?

Thanks in advance.

What's the real difference between the et48 and et44? Besides .4 lbs.

NVM, the fitment page is actually updated for 2nd gen.

It appears on GangUp that the ET35 (VS5RS) wheel is the only one not offered in bronze. Is that actually the case, or is this simply an omission?
