Apex arc-8 wheels

I emailed apex about them making a mini specific wheel so we dont have to run crazy camber or fender flairs to run their current offerings for us. They said they've talked internally about making a set for our cars but have no plans as of right now. But if enough people go email/bother them about maybe they will.

Have you seen this?

Looks pretty good on the R53:


Claims -2.6° camber in the rear, which isn't too much, in my opinion. Could probably get away with a little bit less and not have to worry about rubbing. Although, he was running 205/40-17 tires. Going with a 205/45 would reduce fender clearance just slightly.

That's the post that made want to get them. But I hate any kind of wheel poke, the tire will sit under the fender but the wheel still sticks out a good 5mm which is an eye sore to me at least.
