Tegiwa's Type-R Track Car Featuring 19" EC-7 Wheels

Tegiwa, authorized dealer for APEX, recently track tested our 19×9.5″ ET43 EC-7 wheels on their Type R at Silverstone Circuit raceway located in the UK. Here are a couple of photos with the wheels and tires freshly mounted for the track day in the uber nice garages of Silverstone. The 19×9.5″ ET43 is an aggressive fitment that allows you to run 265 tires at all corners without any fender work or spacers. Tegiwa did not encounter any scrubbing on hard cornering during their testing. Seen below, this FK8 currently runs the stock suspension and factory Brembo brakes with this fully rotatable square setup.

Matt became the JDM Product Expert at APEX Wheels in 2022. Prior to joining APEX, he worked extensively in automotive sales. As an enthusiast he made the shift from street driving to track driving in order to fully experience his cars at the limit without putting the public at risk. Matt has owned six Hondas (‘94 Integra LS, ‘95 Integra RS, ‘96 Integra GS-R, ‘06 RSX Type-S, ‘95 Civic VX, ‘17 Civic EX-T), two Subarus (‘15 Impreza, ‘22 BRZ), and is likely shopping for the next addition to his stable. When he’s not helping JDM owners figure out the best wheel setups for their cars, he enjoys playing racing video games and indulging his interest in automotive photography. Fun fact: Matt knows every quotable line in The Fast and the Furious by heart.
