N/A” means that option is currently unavailable. Not all fitments are produced in every finish, and available finishes are determined by customer demand.

To check wheel availability, visit the product page for the wheel you are interested in and follow these steps:

1. Select your vehicle application from the “Select Vehicle Application” dropdown menu
2. Choose your preferred finish and wheel size
3. Review the availability status displayed below the “Wheel Size” selection

If the wheel is currently available, a green “IN STOCK” message will appear. If the wheel is unavailable, an estimated arrival date (ETA) will be displayed instead.

Please note that all ETAs shown on the website are approximate and may change after an order is placed due to production schedules and inventory availability.

The ETA displayed on our website reflects current inventory availability and production timelines at the time an order is placed. Because these timelines are updated regularly, the ETA currently shown online may differ from the ETA originally associated with your order.

If your estimated delivery timeline changes after your order is placed, you will automatically receive an updated ETA notification by email.

After placing your order, you will receive an email the following day with the estimated ETA for your backordered item based on the information available at the time of purchase.

Please note that all ETAs are approximate and may change due to production schedules, shipping timelines, and inventory availability. If your estimated delivery timeline changes, you will automatically receive an updated ETA notification by email.

Backordered items are allocated and fulfilled in the order purchases are received. As inventory becomes available, orders are processed on a first-in, first-out basis.

No. Backordered items are fulfilled in the order they are received, and our Customer Service team is unable to expedite or prioritize individual backorders.

In some cases, alternative wheel finishes, designs, or fitments may be available with earlier availability than your current selection.

Small paint pops, dust, lint, or hair may occasionally be present in the finish and are considered normal within industry standards. Paint pops the size of a ballpoint pen tip or smaller are considered acceptable. Likewise, small dust, lint, or hair imperfections located in visually insignificant areas of the wheel when installed on a vehicle are considered normal, provided they do not affect wheel function.

Paint pops larger than the tip of a ballpoint pen, or lint/hair longer than 2mm, may qualify for warranty coverage only if they are located on the front face or side of the spokes in a visually significant area of the wheel when installed.

Apex’s limited warranty covers manufacturing defects present from the factory, including machining errors or defective materials that may result in issues such as cracked rims or spokes, center bores out of tolerance, out-of-round wheels, or visual blemishes caused by improper machining.

Cracks or bends caused by impact damage are not covered under warranty. Wheels returned for inspection that show signs of abuse or impact damage — including damage caused by potholes, curbs, or other road hazards — may be denied warranty coverage and returned at the customer’s expense.

Apex offers a discounted Wheel Replacement Program for wheels damaged outside standard warranty coverage. Eligible customers can purchase replacement wheels at a 50% MSRP discount.

To qualify, the wheels must have been purchased within the past two years as a complete set directly from Apex or through an authorized Apex dealer.

To begin the process, complete all required fields on the Wheel Replacement Request form. After submitting the form, you will be redirected to purchase your replacement wheel(s) at full price during checkout.

Once your request is reviewed and approved, Apex will provide return instructions for the damaged wheel(s). After Apex receives the original damaged wheel, 50% of the wheel’s MSRP will be refunded.

To begin your request, please visit the Apex Wheel Replacement Request Form.

To submit a warranty request, please complete the Warranty Request Form in full. Once submitted, our staff will review your claim and determine whether it qualifies for warranty coverage.

If your request is approved, Apex will provide a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) slip with return instructions. All returned Apex products must include a valid RMA slip to be eligible for warranty processing.

Please review the Apex Warranty Policy before submitting your request.

Yes. Apex’s limited warranty only applies to the original retail purchaser of new Apex wheels purchased directly from Apex or an authorized Apex dealer. The warranty is non-transferable and expires if ownership of the wheel changes.

Yes. Apex may require a copy of the original invoice or proof of purchase to verify eligibility for warranty coverage.

Yes. Customers may choose to purchase a replacement wheel at full price before returning the defective wheel. Once the original wheel is received and approved under warranty, a full refund for the replacement wheel purchase will be issued.

RMAs are valid for 45 days from the date they are issued. If the wheel is not returned within that timeframe, a new RMA request must be submitted.

If a replacement wheel was purchased in advance, the original wheel must be returned within 30 days to receive a refund. Returns received after 30 days but before 45 days are only eligible for store credit.

No. Wheels that have been modified from their original specifications are not eligible for warranty coverage. This includes changes to the finish, offset, center bore, barrel width, or removal/modification of identifying specifications engraved on the wheel.

No. Used, blemished, B-stock, or other specially designated wheels sold by Apex are sold as-is and are not covered under the limited warranty.

If a wheel has been discontinued, Apex will provide store credit equal to the original purchase price, up to MSRP, toward another currently available wheel.

Customers may also purchase up to three additional matching replacement wheels at 25% off MSRP to complete a full set when the original wheel is discontinued.

If the replacement wheel is expected to arrive within 120 days, the order will be treated as a backorder. If availability is expected to exceed 120 days, the claim may instead be processed as a discontinued wheel claim.

No. Damage caused by tire mounting or dismounting equipment is not covered under warranty. Customers should inspect all wheels prior to tire installation.

No. Damage caused by potholes, curbs, road debris, track hazards, or impacts is not covered under the limited warranty.

No. Normal wear and tear, including scratches, rock chips, staining from aggressive brake pads, or cosmetic damage from road debris, is not covered.

No. Oxidation on unpainted areas such as the mounting pad, center bore, or knurled bead area is considered normal wear and is not covered.

Apex offers a discounted Wheel Replacement Program that allows eligible customers to purchase replacement wheels at 50% off MSRP for damage that falls outside of our standard warranty coverage.

To qualify, the original wheel set must have been purchased within the past two years directly from Apex or through an authorized Apex dealer.

To submit a Wheel Replacement request and review full program details, please click HERE.

Our team tracks all replacement claims and will notify you if you have reached the maximum number of eligible replacements.

Customers are responsible for return shipping costs. You may either:

• Use your own shipping label and carrier, or
• Purchase a discounted return shipping label through Apex

If you choose to use an Apex-provided return label, the cost of the label will be deducted from your refund.

• Model
• Size
• Offset
• Finish

The program cannot be used to upgrade or change to a different wheel configuration.

No. The Wheel Replacement Program only applies to Apex wheels. TPMS sensors, center caps, lug hardware, mounting, balancing, and installation services are not included.

Replacement wheels purchased through the Wheel Replacement Program are still covered by Apex’s standard manufacturing warranty for defects in materials or workmanship. However, the Wheel Replacement Program itself is not a warranty or insurance policy.

Wheels that have been modified from their original specifications are not eligible. Examples include:

• Powder coating or repainting
• Machining or refinishing
• Offset or center bore modifications
• Barrel widening
• Removal or alteration of wheel specifications engraved on the back of the wheel

• Between 46–75 days: refund may only be issued as Apex store credit
• After 75 days: the RMA expires and no refund or credit will be issued

If your replacement wheel is temporarily backordered, your request may remain open while inventory is replenished. The return deadline for your damaged wheel will not begin until the replacement wheel ships.

Yes, multiple wheels can typically be returned together if properly packaged and clearly labeled with the RMA number. Please follow all packaging instructions provided by Apex.

No. The Wheel Replacement Program is not an insurance policy or warranty. It is a customer loyalty program that provides eligible customers with discounted replacement wheels.

No. Fraudulent claims, intentional damage, or purchasing wheels solely for discounted exchanges are prohibited and will void eligibility.

No. Refunds are only issued back to the original payment method used for the replacement purchase, or as Apex store credit where applicable.

To begin, please fill out the Wheel Replacement Request Form.

After you’ve filled out the form, you’ll be prompted to purchase a replacement wheel at full price. While your replacement wheel is being packed and shipped, a member of our customer service team will reach out to you and provide you with return paperwork to be included when returning your damaged wheel. Once you receive your replacement wheel, send the damaged wheel back to us. Our warehouse will process your damaged wheel into our system and we’ll send you a 50% refund soon after.

Any wheel purchased as part of a set of four from Apex or an authorized Apex dealer is eligible for the wheel replacement program for two years. Each wheel from the original set can only be replaced once using the replacement program.

Yes, international purchases are eligible for the program. We help our international customers on a case by case basis and work out the logistics involved in getting them back on the road on a safe Apex replacement wheel. Although international claims are handled differently than domestic claims, the first step is to fill out the claim form above.

It is the customer’s responsibility to return the damaged wheel to us. You may ship it back using any shipping option you prefer or we can provide you with a discounted prepaid label. The cost of this label will be deducted from your return credit.

FedEx is our primary shipping carrier for both domestic and international orders.

Our warehouse is not equipped to accommodate will-call pickups or in-person return/exchange drop-offs. As a result, all orders must be shipped directly to customers, and all returns or exchanges must be mailed back to our warehouse for processing.

If your shipment arrives with visible damage to the boxes or products, please inspect the shipment carefully upon delivery before installation or use.

If you notice any damage:

• Take clear photos of the packaging, shipping labels, and damaged items immediately
• Keep all original packaging materials and boxes
• Contact our Customer Support Team as soon as possible at support@apexwheels.com

Providing photos and retaining the original packaging helps us work with the shipping carrier to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. Please do not install or use damaged products until the issue has been reviewed by our team.

We are legally required to declare the accurate purchase value of all shipments in accordance with international customs regulations. Declaring a lower value, marking items as gifts, or providing inaccurate information would violate customs laws and could result in delays, fines, confiscation of the shipment, or other penalties.

We appreciate your understanding and recommend checking with your local customs office for more information about potential import charges before placing an order.

No. Apex Wheels does not operate a public showroom, and our headquarters is not equipped to accommodate walk-in visitors.

To help customers explore our products in greater detail, we offer an extensive online Gallery featuring our wheel models, finishes, and fitments across a wide range of vehicle applications.

Many HPDE and track event organizers recommend removing plastic center caps prior to track use.

During aggressive driving or repeated heavy braking, significant heat can transfer through the wheel and into the center cap area. This heat may damage plastic center caps and, in some cases, could cause them to loosen or detach.

For this reason, Apex recommends removing plastic center caps before participating in HPDE events, track driving, or other high-performance driving activities.

Installing center caps:

1. Position the center cap over the front side of the wheel’s center bore
2. Place a microfiber towel over the center cap to protect the finish
3. Gently tap the center cap into place using a rubber mallet

Removing center caps with the wheel removed:

1. Cover the handle of a screwdriver or similar soft tool with a microfiber towel
2. Carefully tap the center cap out from the back side of the wheel

Removing center caps with the wheel installed on the vehicle:

1. Use a suction cup removal tool
2. Press and secure the suction cup to the face of the center cap
3. Pull outward to release the center cap from the wheel

To avoid damaging the finish, always use soft or protected tools when installing or removing center caps.

Apex does not currently offer touch-up paint or publish paint codes for our wheel finishes.

For minor cosmetic repairs, many customers choose to work with a local refinishing or automotive paint shop to create a custom-matched paint solution designed to closely match the original wheel finish.

We recommend cleaning your wheels regularly to prevent brake dust, dirt, and grime buildup. Frequent maintenance helps preserve the finish and keeps your wheels looking their best.

Avoid washing wheels immediately after driving or in direct sunlight whenever possible. Wheels and brakes should be cool before cleaning to help prevent rotor warping and keep cleaning products from drying or baking onto the finish. If you must wash in sunlight, use plenty of water to keep surfaces cool and dry the wheels quickly afterward.

Use acid-free, pH-neutral wheel cleaners along with soft bristle brushes, microfiber wash mitts, and microfiber towels. It’s also important to use separate wheel-cleaning tools from the ones used on your vehicle’s paint to avoid scratching the finish with brake dust and debris.

Yes. All Apex spacers are sold in pairs, so a quantity of 1 includes two spacers.

To select the correct HUF TPMS sensor for your vehicle, start by reviewing the first dropdown menu located next to the product image. Depending on the product page, you may see either:

• Vehicle chassis/year options
• Specific HUF TPMS part numbers

If chassis/year options are shown: Simply select the option that matches your vehicle’s chassis and model year.

If specific HUF part numbers are shown: You will need to reference the TPMS Application List located below the main product image on the product page.

To find the correct sensor:

1. Click the “Application List” link
2. Select your vehicle under “Fitments by Make”
3. Locate your vehicle generation in the list provided
4. Reference the corresponding HUF part number shown for your application

If you are unsure which TPMS sensor is correct for your vehicle, please contact our team for assistance before placing your order.

Most modern vehicles are equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) and will require TPMS sensors when installing aftermarket wheels. In general, vehicles produced around 2006 and newer are equipped with TPMS from the factory.

Vehicles without factory TPMS, or those that use an indirect TPMS system, typically do not require separate sensors.

If your vehicle is equipped with TPMS sensors, Apex recommends continuing to use them. Properly functioning TPMS sensors help provide accurate tire pressure monitoring and can alert drivers to low tire pressure conditions that may require attention.

Some track and motorsport enthusiasts choose not to install TPMS sensors on dedicated track or race wheel setups. In these cases, vehicles originally equipped with TPMS may display a warning light or system notification.

Some owners choose to disable the TPMS system through aftermarket coding or programming solutions; however, any modifications to factory safety systems are performed at the owner’s discretion and risk.

In most cases, your factory OEM TPMS sensors can be transferred and reused with your new wheels.

However, it is important to consider the age of your existing sensors. TPMS sensors use sealed, non-serviceable batteries that typically last approximately 5–7 years. If your sensors are older, replacing them during wheel installation may help avoid future service or tire dismounting costs.

Purchasing a second set of TPMS sensors can also be beneficial for customers using dedicated track, winter, or alternate wheel setups, as it eliminates the need to repeatedly swap sensors between wheel sets.

Yes. While HUF TPMS sensors are universal in hardware, the selected part number determines the programming configuration used for your specific vehicle.

A qualified shop with an ATEQ TPMS programming tool may be able to reprogram the sensors for the correct application. If preferred, the sensors can also be replaced with the correct part number for your vehicle.

Apex Low-Profile Valve Stems are designed to sit flush with, or below, the face of the wheel to help reduce exposure to wheel-to-wheel contact, curbing, and other potential impacts. They are also available in a wider range of finish options to better match your wheel setup.

It is important to note that Apex Low-Profile Valve Stems are only compatible with HUF TPMS sensors.

HUF Valve Stems are the standard valve stem option designed specifically for use with HUF TPMS sensors. While they are available in a more limited selection of colors, they remain the standard solution for HUF TPMS compatibility.

Apex Low-Profile Valve Stems may be compatible with non-Apex wheels that use an 11.5mm valve stem hole. Customers should verify valve stem hole dimensions and wheel clearance prior to installation.

If your TPMS sensors are not pairing correctly with your vehicle, the sensors should first be scanned using a TPMS diagnostic/programming tool. This can help determine whether the issue is related to sensor programming, sensor functionality, or tire pressure readings.

Many reputable tire shops and installers can perform a TPMS scan and inspection, often at little or no cost.

Please reference our Metal Valve Stem Installation Instructions here: https://apexwheels.com/customer-support/metal-valve-stem-installation-instructions

Important installation note: After inserting the valve stem through the wheel’s valve stem hole, install the washer and hex nut. As the nut is tightened, the outer valve stem body may initially stop rotating before fully seating against the wheel surface. This is normal and occurs because the internal locking collar is still intact.

Continue tightening until the locking collar breaks away, which may produce an audible snap or noticeable change in resistance. Once this occurs, the valve stem can be fully tightened against the wheel to create a proper airtight seal.

TPMS sensors must be initialized or synchronized to your vehicle using the procedure specified by your vehicle manufacturer. Instructions for this process can typically be found in your owner’s manual.

Some vehicles automatically recognize new TPMS sensors after driving, while others require a dedicated TPMS programming or relearn tool to complete the pairing process. Most professional tire shops and installers have the necessary equipment to perform this procedure during tire installation.
