A FITMENT FOR YOU
Need help selecting the proper wheel fitment for your BMW? APEX Race Parts have tirelessly test-fitted hundreds of setup combinations in order to provide direct-fit, spacer-free wheel packages for everything from showroom-fresh cars to all-out race builds. Their detailed fitment guides help you avoid costly trial-and-error and walk you through every step of finding your perfect setup.
Fit Matters The right solution for every application
The FL-5 wheel includes details specifically implemented to enhance the BMW owners' track day and street performance experience. An optimized car setup begins with the right wheel and tyre fitment, and without model-specific attention, maximum performance is compromised. These wheels were developed for various BMW chassis’s and will work in either square or staggered configurations.
Lip Sizes One design, many levels of beauty
Available with shallow, medium, and deep lip sizes. This maximizes spoke concavity and reduces weight on the FL-5 design. Lip depth is dependent on fitment, and not selected independently.
"I" Beam Spokes More than just a pretty face
The spokes of the FL-5 were designed to be robust where they need to be, and extra lightweight where they should be. Weight is reduced by CNC machining material out from the sides of each spoke. It’s expensive and avoided by almost every manufacturer, but affordable with volume. In each size of the FL-5 designs, the I-beam spokes are carefully evaluated from structural aspects to ensure minimal weight, brake clearance, and remarkable strength.
Dual Flow Formed Strength is the key
APEX use rotary forging for both the front and rear barrels on the FL-5 wheel designs. This produces the strongest lips possible, and APEX can optimize the depth of the front lip for every unique width and offset.
Beefier Lip Ready for more abuse
By saving weight elsewhere, APEX have added extra material where it counts. They've beefed up the barrel’s inner lip on the FL-5 to better handle the repetitive abuse seen on the track.
Hub Centric No rings or adapters here
All APEX FL-5 wheels are purpose built for select vehicle applications, and centering rings are never required for any BMW application. All 5x120mm bolt pattern wheels feature a direct-fit, 72.56mm centre bore.
Brake Clearance A lot of room in a tight space
Spoke clearance is only half the problem. The barrel construction on a wheel also needs to be big enough to clear the sides of your caliper and rotor. Many aftermarket wheels that have aesthetic compromises in their design may work with smaller stock brakes, or smaller diameter big brake kits, but the larger kits will pose a major problem. The barrel of the FL-5 wheel offers unmatched caliper clearance because wheels shouldn’t limit your choice of aftermarket brake kits, and brake kits shouldn’t force you to run oversized wheels. APEX 2D modeled most Big Brake Kits available in Solidworks and tweaked the wheel design of the FL-5 prior to production in order to fit as many kits as possible.
Wheel Hardware Original or Aftermarket, it all works
The FL-5 wheel can be used with all OEM and aftermarket mounting hardware with a 60° tapered seat. Lug bolts, wheel locks, and stud conversion kits all work perfectly. The FL-5 wheel also accepts wheel spacers without issue. The shallow rear chamfer allows the wheel to remain hub centric even when 5mm flat spacers are used. The chamfer is deep enough to clear the chamfered lip found on some aftermarket spacers that would typically cause improper seating of the wheel and, therefore, wheel vibration.
Centre Cap A factory fit and finish
APEX don't reuse one cap design for all of their wheels. Every APEX wheel is designed to work with factory centre caps. You can easily replace APEX centre caps with OEM roundels for a clean factory look. APEX wheels will come with the redesigned, Gloss Black centre cap that mimics the size and shape of a BMW factory centre cap.
TPMS Sensors They all fit
TPMS sensors, which monitor tyre pressure, are one piece of technology that can't be compromised. The attention to OEM compatibility on the FL-5 wheel doesn't end with centre caps. All APEX wheels accept OEM and aftermarket equivalent TPMS sensors, and any standard sized metal or rubber valve stem.
THE APEX STANDARD
Flow Forming Benefits of forging, without the pain
These APEX wheels are produced using a manufacturing process known as flow forming. This process significantly reduces weight in the barrel, which has the greatest impact on rotational mass. During the manufacturing process, rollers apply high pressure to the inner barrel, compressing the aluminium into its final shape. This effectively eliminates porosity and aligns the grain structure of the metal, which increases tensile strength. The end result is a lightweight and extremely strong barrel that equals that of a traditional forged wheel at a fraction of the cost.
Testing & Certifications Verifiable 3rd party testing
Many companies promote their wheels as being certified by the VIA when they actually aren’t. That’s like using the USDA logo on food without permission. APEX wheels get officially tested and registered by the VIA in Japan, and they have the proof to back it up.
Japan’s JWL is a commonly followed standard for wheel load ratings. The APEX flow formed wheels meet, and most exceed, their load rating requirements. Most manufacturers only meet the minimum while some don’t even do that. Check and verify load ratings before you buy.
Weight & Strength Optimization It’s all in the details
APEX took more time than ever before on this step, revising and iterating their design to reduce weight as much as possible. After many months of BMW-specific optimizations, APEX minimized weight while maximizing strength. The result is a lightweight wheel with extra strength in all the right places. Use the FL-5 with confidence on both street and track.
Finishes Because being faster is just not enough
The FL-5 wheels are available in multiple finishes. All APEX wheels are finished using a comprehensive multi-stage liquid paint system over a powder coated base coat. Standard finishes include gloss-metallic finishes, and semi-gloss or matte finishes.
Often overlooked, painted or powder coated lug hole seats can cause hardware to loosen or begin the spread of paint chipping to more visible sections. The coating process of the wheels leaves lug holes, centre bores and mounting pads untouched, which ensures proper fit and torque values.
Lifetime Warranty A wheel you can depend on
As of recent, all APEX wheels now come with a lifetime structural warranty and 1 year finish warranty, so you can be confident in your purchase. Please contact us for the full terms and conditions.

This bag arrived well packaged. It was enclosed in a plastic sleeve that had a cardboard insert covering 2 sides of the bag. The bag was also inside a cloth type bag that is usually reserved for expensive purses/bags. There was also protective material covering the bag’s handle and clasp. The packaging protected the bag and there were no damage when received.
When I removed the bag from its packaging, the “NK” excited and confused me. At first glance, I thought that I had mistakenly received THE designer bag with similar logo branding. There are decorative zippers on the front of the bag which uniquely camouflage 2 roomy front pockets. This was a great idea since it enables me to store items there (keys, coin purse, mints) without having to enter the bag’s main compartment to retrieve them.
The closing clasps operate without incident and compliment the look of the bag. The handle allows you to throw it over the shoulder or just carry in your hands. The inside is very roomy, is nicely lined and has a pocket where you can slip items in so they don’t get lost inside the bag. The roominess of the bag reminds me more of a tote bag than a purse. Overall, this is a really nice bag that I am proud to own.

Trendy And Well Made Purse!
This is a take on a very popular style, and fairly well done. As you can see photographed here, this is a reasonably large-sized purse which you could use to and from the office, or almost as a day bag. The clasping mechanism on the top is cute, it ensures everything is contained and naturally folds the top over to give you a little bit more room under the arm. The metal accents and zippers are well done. The material feels nice although it does have a slight off gassing initially so you might want to air it out the first day. Otherwise reasonable construction and quality give this an easy five stars.

Cute and roomy
This is a roomy and well made purse. It's a modern and chic style as well. The print is well made and the materials are good. It isn't really stiff but does have structure. The straps are stitched nicely and made of a medium brown leather like material. It's a really cute bag that is decently made so it's a great price for the value.

Best Handbag Iv ever Purchased from Amazon
Size: Large, Color: 2-croco Purple
I was a scrolling to purchase a new Handbag. Many of my Handbags were ruined in my storage due to a water leak and mold damage. So feeling sorry for myself a new handbag just may cheer me up.
I saw this BEAUTIFUL handbag and looking at hundred’s of bags on Amazon. Then after close inspection on this particular handbag I really liked I realized it’s the exact same handbag Iv been using the past several years. Lol 😂
Mine is now a bit worn and starting to show which after 2-3 years of continual and I have a tendency too be hard on my handbags. It’s super easy to wear on my arm or just by the very sturdy handle. It holds up to the weight of all my things
So it’s time for several new ones now that my collection has been destroyed. I have to say I still LOVE this handbag.
The Color, Style and multiple pockets organizes my belongings. It’s just and Amazing handbag and the price point is great an absolute plus. It stacks up to other high priced brand names.
Even after being well worn I still receive compliments on this handbag. Now the decision do I buy it again since Purple is my favorite color
or maybe get it in a different color. Maybe Red for the holidays or Black for versatility?
Still purple is my favorite. I’ll never be able to decide but if you’re considering a new handbag I’d give this one a try you won’t regret it.
Enjoy 👜
