Sweet, thanks! That last picture looked like it was pretty far past the fender, but I think it's just lens distortion - since the others look pretty close to flush. Now I've just got to find tires.

P.S. - I hope you and your family weathered the storm OK.

Thanks! I was fortunate and blessed to be able to prep for the hurricane. Others were not as lucky and got hit really hard. Still dealing with the power/water outage but everything will come back to normal eventually.

Glad to hear that you were able to prep! Those Hurricanes can be really bad.

Apex SM-10
Front

275/35-19 Michelin pilot super sports
Rear
19x11 ET 40
305/30-19 Toyo R888R
Stock Suspension
Stock alignment

I can't wait to burn through my current tires which are the stock sizes stretched to the same width you got. They work totally fine, but it looks so much better with a proper sidewall.

I had 4 new tires 500 miles on them. I got desperate and switch the rears to front, you know, so that I don't feel so bad and replaced just the rears. When the fronts are done, prob going with 265/35-19.

Its not currently in the works, but we may revisit this 18x10.5" option as we did used to offer it in our EC-7R Classic Line Forged wheel design. Having that many fitments for a single chassis is difficult to justify from a production and stocking standpoint, but I'd love to make it work. For now our 18x10 ET30 and 18x11 ET40 square fitments cover quite a bit of ground on the 18" square fitments side of thing although I admit the mods the 18x11 ET40s require can be intimidating.

I'm definitely in for a forged 18 x 10.5 pre-order, either VS-5RS or EC-7R, if that ever happens.

Completely understand that having a third option may be a difficult proposition to make to the powers that be at Apex. However, I do think the 10.5 fitment would be quite popular for this platform given it would enable running a 295 squared setup with a much lower barrier-to-entry in terms of required mod/suspension/alignment setup compared to the 18 x 11.

Hey would you be able to do a photoshop of gold sm-10 in the front and black sm10 in the rear for me, I am thinking about doing it.

We can't easily photoshop that finish combination as we don't have any SM-10 renders in gold. We don't have plans to offer that finish so would you be repainting the set?

305 will be a bit much on a 10" wide. Would want at least 10.5 and preferably a 11"

Absolutely… I would do that if I was considering it. Sure it would be nice but I love the square setup, ease of finding tires, and price!
