Yes, I am yelling , and my apologies but I could not contain my excitement and I wanted to make sure all you Trackrats, Pylon Pulverizers and Cars and Coffee Cool Dudes ( or Dudettes ) are aware that those folks in California are confused on their days, as " Black Friday " is actually " Black Monday!!" That is right, do not continue typing , do not call your friends ( do this first ), do not chat with your significant other ( ask for forgiveness later ) go directly to APEXWHEELS.COM and order your wheels you have been talking about. All wheels are on Sale, and yes that is not a typo, all wheels are on Sale and having bought 6 sets of their wheels in the past I do not ever remember when all of those lovely aluminum round objects were on "Sale!" Free shipping in Continental US, and the savings is better than any of the group buys I have done with them on a couple of sets. No I am not a paid shill I just am an avid Motorhead who gets his vehicles out to exercise on road courses or auto crosses and it is always convenient to have a set or two of track wheels, and though I love Forgeline, Apex has become my new go to wheel guys.

Repeat -----Apex Wheels are in Sale NOW and I know as I just got a set ordered , have an order number and am sitting on the front porch waiting for the UPS man ( maybe I am a bit too excited ). If you are waiting for later forget it as I saved over $700 from my last order and though yours may be different, it will be substantial.

This has been a " Carpoke " Service Message of high importance so after ordering you can continue with your breakfast or maybe even going to work.

apexwheels.com Don't forget you can scroll down to the bottom of their page, click on fitment guides and find what wheels will fit on your car. I am downsizing from 20s to 18s and though most will not be doing that , there will be a ton of folks going down one size ( i.e. 20s down to 19s )

VitaminC --- I could not get your great looking bronze wheels , though, as they don't seem to be doing them in the size I wanted , so my car may not look as good as yours does !? Went with the Anthracite since that should look pretty good on a Chalk Cayman!

I have the SM-10RS wheels in Anthracite - very nice. I think the Anthracite looks better in person than in pictures, so keep your porch vigil going - let the excitement grow! You'll be happy, I'm sure.

So does the sale mean I need to buy another set? Lol

Already chatted with 2 buddies who told me they hated me because they knew they were going to be in trouble even before Thanksgiving thanks to me------they each snagged up another set of track wheels, ha!

By the way I had a set of the Anthracite SM-10s on my Silver Mustang Mach 1 --- they do look incredible! I agree, blueline, they do look even more spectacular in person, but I imagine sometime down the road I will need a set of Bronze ones like VitaminC's set!

I am quite a fan of the motorsports gold myself, though it would depend which color car you have.

Motosport Gold would look good on your Lil Red Wagon, as well as my little Chalk Croc, imho!

Heads up.............I had a Senior moment and forgot to order valve stems, though I will not use TPMS sensors since the car will be on the track, but if you need those accessories or others, Apex has them at 20% off, and that is solid, since they do not always offer discounts on the add ons.

Bill, why do you prefer to not use TPMS sensors on track wheels? The accuracy is phenomenal and the readings just before pit-in give me a wonderful benchmark that I check against with the Longacre as soon as I hop out of the car. I rely on both of those readings as well as my 10-15 min post pit-in Longacre pressure checks. (I keep a hastily scribbled log for the day.)

Understand, but I am a long time subscriber to checking the tires upon coming in, as that tends to be more accurate than any digital readout. My issue is also that so many folks tend to watch the tire pressure gauges or fiddle around with other things when I am Instructing and I find it is not conducive to focus. This same item came up on another Forum ( not a Porsche one ) and myself and a old Tire Guru ( he still is the Tire Chief for a couple of Pro Teams ) still stay with the old method of checking when pulling into the pits. They still do it by hand with Pro Teams and that is good enough for me, but the other issue is the sensors get damaged fairly easily and there have been times where getting replacements were insane ( prior to Covid even ). I also find too many folks relying very heavily on gauges and so many of us have counseled folks to check stuff manually when on track, and that helps with habits not just related to tires, but track maintenance list and reviewing other safety areas.
