Kenny Brown Performance’s Serialized GT4 CS Boss 302 is just another example of the best-in-class street and track day Mustangs that rolls out of their facility. This S197 Mustang is equipped with our lightweight APEX 19″ EC-7 wheels, which provide superior brake clearance for the Kenny Brown Baer PRO 4R BBK – a stout brake kit developed and tested in house by Kenny Brown Performance.

Kenny Brown is a highly respected innovator and builder of high-performance street cars, track cars and race cars with decades of experience specializing in the Mustang platform. Kenny has deep roots within the world of Motorsports, and has worked alongside other highly respected names like Steve Saleen in the late 1980’s.

Today, Kenny is still the driving force behind new products, testing and development, special engineering projects and of course the magnificent high-performance cars and race cars that proudly carry his name. Kenny Brown Performance has grown and evolved to be one of the premier high-performance tuning houses in North America, and we are proud to have them onboard as an Authorized APEX dealer.

Cory has been Domestic Fitment Expert at APEX since 2018, helping owners figure out the proper wheel fitments for their Camaro, Corvette, Mustang, Challenger, Charger, Cadillac, and Tesla vehicles. Prior to joining APEX, he worked as Service Advisor at an automotive performance shop. Never one to sit at a car show, Cory has had a lifelong passion for performance driving. His extensive track experience began with HPDEs in 2015. He soon got the itch to start competing in time trials, which he has been doing ever since. Among the cars he has tracked are three Mustang GTs (2005, 2006, 2011), a 2016 Fiesta ST, and his current ride, a 2010 Corvette Grand Sport with APEX SM-10RS wheels. Fun Fact: Apparently Cory’s love of speed isn’t limited to the racetrack; after not training at all, he recently ran a 5K and placed 7th out of 210 competitors.
