What’s different about our Group Buy?

Joining Group Buy deals via forums is traditionally a very manual process. Since our deals have grown so large over time, we are working with a new tool to organize these deals in a single, well organized location. This deal is entirely managed on GroupBuyParts.com where you can pay, follow, and even discuss the deal’s status.

How do I participate?

Visit the official Deal Dashboard on GroupBuyParts.com. From there, you can show your interest by joining our feeler list. You’ll receive an email reminder when the deal officially opens. When the deal is live and accepting payments, you can complete checkout and pay for your order from the same page. All product details, member participants, and discussions can be found on that Dashboard.

What if I have some questions?

No problem! Just contact us at [email protected]. Please avoid sending us Private Messages as they do not automatically go into our ticketing system and will experience a delay for responses.

I know this is mostly an S197 crowd, but I wanted to share more info in regards to the new 19" EC-7 Mustang wheel and their ability to clear aftermarket and factory BBK's.


APEX 19" EC-7 Wheels - S550 GT350 Brake Clearance

Great news for all you GT350 owners out there! A local enthusiast was nice enough to donate his GT350 to the cause, and brake clearance has been verified. Although we originally manufactured these to specifically clear just about any brake kit you throw at them, we wanted to double back and perform further in-house testing for validation. Whether enthusiasts choose to run a staggered or rotatable square fitment, APEX 19" wheels will supply GT350 owners with piece of mind on and off the race track.

Full GT350 photoshoot to come once we receive our wider sample wheels, but for now these 19x10" EC-7 Mustang wheels depict the ample clearance GT350 owners can expect.

Brake Clearance - Spokes
Spokes that work for you

If the spokes of a wheel don't clear your brake calipers, then the wheel can’t be used at all. We made sure these wheels properly clear both standard and big brake kits offered by Ford, plus popular aftermarket BBK’s when configured correctly. Keep in mind, some aggressive square fitments utilizing the 19x10.5”or 19x11” EC-7 wheels at the front axle will require spacers for proper inner strut clearance, and this will also ensure proper brake clearance.

Brake Clearance - Barrel
A lot of room in a tight space

Designing a wheel with spokes that clear a Big Brake Kit, is only half of the battle. The inside of the barrel needs to be large enough to physically fit large calipers and rotors. Be warned— not all wheels are made equal. The barrel of the EC-7 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. We 2D modeled most Big Brake Kits available in Solidworks and tweaked the wheel design of the EC-7 prior to production in order to fit as many kits as possible.

These wheels effectively clear a variety of aftermarket BBK’s as well as popular factory BBK’s like the S197 14” and 15” GT500 Brembo kits, S550 Performance Package Brembo kit, and even the S550 GT350 Brembo kit!

Less than 24 hours to go until this Group Buy is officially in the 7 day payment phase!

Keep in mind, the best way to ensure we reach the deepest discounts possible is to finalize your order as early as possible within the 7 day window. This creates more momentum early on, and with our minimum required discount (MRD) feature, there is no risk in the deal not meeting your expectations/required discount level. If your discount tier is not met, there is no obligation to buy.

If you have any fitment or product related questions, don't hesitate to consult with one of our Product Experts today!

We've got just over 14 hours left on the clock, but that is still plenty of time for those on the feeler list to make an official pledge, as well as any new interested enthusiasts. We tend to see people join within the last hours of the deal, so we still have a solid shot at reaching $100 off + free shipping * or even $150 off + free shipping*.

Remember, we've eliminated any "risk" with the minimum required discount (MRD) feature. You can select the $100 off tier as your MRD and if it is not successfully met you have no obligation to buy!

We understand this may be the first time many Mustang forum goers are interacting with the Group Buy system, so do not hesitate to ask questions.

The Group Buy has come to an official close, and I want to thank you for your continued support.

Unfortunately the amount of interested members that officially converted to on-board buyers was much lower than anticipated, and this may be due to the fact that the Mustang community is not as familiar with our Group Buy process. Nonetheless we strongly believe in these 19" fitments for both the S197 and S550 chassis and their long term success once product is in stock, and have decided to press onward with production on both the 19x10" ET40 and 19x11" ET52 wheels in both Anthracite and Satin Black finish options. With that said, the current demand did not support the production of the supplementary 19x9.5" ET35 or 19x10.5" ET46 wheels at this time. We hope to follow up with these SKUs at a later date in the near future.

Pledged members who have selected higher discount tiers that were not met have received an email from the team at Group Buy Parts, and have until tonight at midnight (PST) to reply with your response on whether or not you would like to convert.

We look forward to getting these 19" wheels into your hands, and continuing to grow the APEX lineup for the S197 and S550 chassis.
