Does anyone have any experiences/knowledge/opinions about Apec/Apache wheels?
What is the quality like? Does the chrome/finish peel off after a while. Are they well balanced.
I am thinking about getting a set. They are cheaper than the wheels they are copies of and actually look quite good.

Hard to tell from the pic: are they chrome or machined and polished alloy?

Either way, those, or the ones The Diff has would look great. In fact, if I ever change from the stock VR-X wheels, I'd probably go for either of those myself. :thumbsup: Probably would go with The Diff's though 'cos they suit Magnas and they look 'substantial' (3-piece?) and expensive.

Are they 18x8? I want 17's but they seem to only do 17's in 17x7 in most of their styles.

The reason I like the Storms is that they have the black on polished alloy which I think looks best with the White VR-X
