The SCTS Racing team stopped by the APEX office with their champion E90 M3 Race Car with new Bluebird livery and APEX FL-5 wheels. The 10.5″ ET22 features the deepest lip we offer in the FL-5 design with “I” beam spokes and a reinforced lip to provide more strength on the race track. After our photoshoot (below), SCTS is taking this race car to Thunderhill for a BMW CCA Club Racing event. Click here to view some on-track photos.
