Apex EC-7 19x9.5 Flow-Formed Wheel - Anthracite (EC71995ET28-5120-7256-AN) - BMW
The Apex EC-7 has become a favorite among BMW enthusiasts for its combination of lightweight construction, exceptional strength, and proven motorsport-inspired engineering. Built using advanced flow-forming technology, this 19x9.5-inch wheel delivers impressive performance benefits without the premium cost associated with fully forged wheels. Whether you're upgrading a street-driven BMW or preparing for track duty, the EC-7 is engineered to deliver confidence in every corner.
Finished in a premium Anthracite coating, the EC-7 combines aggressive styling with practical performance advantages. Apex focused on maximizing brake clearance, optimizing wheel stiffness, and reducing unnecessary weight to create a wheel that performs as well as it looks. The result is a purpose-built wheel designed for enthusiasts who refuse to compromise.
Performance-Focused Design
Extensive Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was utilized to reinforce critical load-bearing areas while eliminating excess material. Combined with flow-formed barrel construction and multiple concave face profiles, the EC-7 achieves an outstanding balance of durability, stiffness, and reduced weight. Every detail was developed to enhance performance while maintaining the strength required for demanding driving conditions.
