Default ► APEX | 18” Porsche Wheel Pre-Order Group Buy



The APEX 18” Porsche Wheel Group Buy is now officially closed.

VISIT THE GROUP BUY PAGE HERE



Thousands of you took our survey and shared invaluable information that influenced what’s included in this deal. We're happy to announce that our Porsche pre-order Group Buy is now live.

The ability to bring these wheels to fruition is dependent on your pre-order Group Buy participation. We're committed to each specific fitment and finish so long as there is enough interest for each. This Group Buy allows you to pre-order with the potential for the deepest discounts we'll ever offer. You can view all sizes, pricing, and details on the Group Buy site linked below. Participate, spread the word, and rejoice that our Porsche wheels are finally near.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here, reach out directly, or submit them through the Group Buy platform.

Thinking about waiting to join until your discount is hit? Don’t do that!
We always recommend getting your pledge in as early as possible. The system in no way rewards watching the deal and joining late. The whole purpose of the pledge system is to allow you to join with confidence and security even within the first minute of the deal accepting payment. You’ll never have to pay more than you’re willing to - even if you’re the first participant. Pledging is risk free!

How do I participate?
Visit the official Deal Dashboard on GangUp.com. From there, you can show your interest by joining our feeler list. You’ll receive an email reminder when the deal officially opens. When the deal is live and accepting payments, you can complete checkout and pay for your order from the same page. All product details, member participants, and discussions can be found on that Dashboard.

I want to know more about APEX wheels. Where can I learn more about them?
All APEX wheels are highly regarded and fully verified with official JWL and VIA certifications for every single size and offset. We created these wheels to inspire confidence during track days, race events, and everyday driving. Click here to learn everything about APEX wheels. The quality of information is worth your time!

What if I have some questions?
No problem! You can simply contact us by clicking “Message Vendor” on the deal page or via groupbuys@apexraceparts.com. Please avoid sending us Private Messages as they do not automatically go into our ticketing system and will experience a delay for responses.

What’s different about our Group Buy?
Joining Group Buy deals via forums is traditionally a very manual process. Since our deals have grown so large over time, we are working with a new tool to organize these deals in a single, well organized location. This deal is entirely managed on GangUp.com where you can pay, follow, and discuss the deal’s status.

Thank you for the kind words!

Once these wheel and tire combinations become frequently run, I will continue to fine-tune and update the alignment settings as exact negative camber settings are identified. The alignment settings in the fitment guide are accurate, but I'm looking forward to spotting trends and nailing them down to the tenth degree.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions regarding the Group Buy. You can contact me directly or through the Group Buy site.

That is what is indicated in the group buy. September delivery based on when you sign up to the group buy.

While it may be sooner, I'd rather underpromise and overdeliver on our timeframe rather than vice versa. Production is dependent on the Group Buy figures, so the sooner enthusiasts commit, the sooner we're able to get the wheels rolling. Additionally, delivery timing is prioritized and shipped in the order that official pledges are received.

In this ETA, we've accounted for many of the worst case scenarios. Slow production, a month in transit, a couple weeks to receive wheels and allocate orders at the warehouse, and another week to fulfill shipments.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions, or if I can help in any manner.

Thank you for your participation thus far, everyone! We're on the road to hit the maximum discount if everyone pledges their interest. With a little over one month remaining, take advantage of the largest discounts that we'll ever offer.

For other enthusiasts that haven't done so already - configure your set, select your preferences, and join the gang! Once you’ve shown your interest, you must come back and “pledge” your interest to secure your desired set(s) on the Group Buy page. Submitting interest without pledging doesn’t reserve you any product - it just lets you stay in touch with the deal; similar to watching an eBay auction. With the ability to choose your discount tier, there is no risk to pledging and no reward from waiting. We’re allocating sets and shipping them in the order pledges are received, so pledging early is recommended.

Our latest APEX blog post sheds some light on the SM-10's knurled bead. Check it out HERE!

Now is the time to show your interest and submit your pledge in our pre-order Group Buy. Although you have until 6/28 to officially submit your pledge, getting your pledge in before the payment phase opens is recommended. The payment phase opens in one week and will run through Thursday 6/28 at 11:59PDT. We typically see an influx of pledges during the payment phase as it is the last opportunity to participate in this deal. Keep in mind that we’re allocating inventory and shipping product in the order of which pledges are received.

Our Group Buy payment phase goes live tonight! This week is your last opportunity to participate in this Group Buy and receive the largest discounts we’ll ever offer.

Showing only interest does not mean you are part of this deal. You must submit your pledge to guarantee your spot and have an impact on the discount tiers. We typically see a rush of buyers in the payment phase of every Group Buy, and with the ability to choose your own minimum required discount, there is no risk in pledging. Your order will not be processed unless we reach your desired discount level. Get your pledge in today to secure your preferred finish and receive the first batch of APEX Porsche wheels.

Ask and you shall receive...

What's photographed? 2012 987.2
What wheel and tire specifications? 18x9" ET46 with 255/35-18 front, 18x10" ET36 with 275/35-18 rear Toyo R888.
What suspension and alignment settings? KW Clubsports. -2.5° front negative camber, -2.0° rear negative camber. We recommend -3.0° front camber with these specifications to eliminate rubbing and ensure proper utilization of the tires.

For reference, please visit our 987 fitment guide, HERE.

As the deal comes to a close this evening, the APEX staff will continue to stay in touch with all participants in regards to the products arrival. We are very eager to get these wheels mounted up to some P cars, and put through their paces at the track where they belong.
