APEX EC-7 vs SVE R357

[Melico]

I'm kind of into this shape of rim, but ec7 is backordering, and the price (~$1700 w/ tax and shipping) is way more expensive than r357 (~$1300). Also, I'm looking at bronze finish, does anyone know those bronze are same or different? Based on the image shown on the websites, seems like ec7 stain bronze is a bit darker than r357 stain bronze.

Also looking forward some suggestions on setting. Mainly a street driver, have no thought on modify the suspension, since I still have the warrenty. So I feel like 19x10 is a better choice for me, also trying to put 275/40/19 or 285/35/19 tires on them.

I will put the wheel links below:

From what I can tell, the Apex bronze is a bit darker and deeper. A few folks on here that have SVE bronze call it more of a sand than a bronze. I have the SVE CFX in gloss black, nice wheel and the paint finish is very good. Tough to beat the price too.

Thanks for heads up, I do prefer a darker one to fit rapid red color with mustang. In this case, probably ec7 is a better choice, but the price... uhhh... still makes me hesitant.

Apex does run sales most holidays with free shipping. But that price you are showing is the typical sale price. I paid $1564 delivered on memorial day sale.
These are a satin finish and that is a dull look, not shiney. Everyone seems to like the look on green. Not sure if you watch the classified adds. There is a set thats been on there a while, but not close to your location.

This is a picture outside. The bright lights in my garage make it look different in photos.

I’ve had both bronze and apex is darker. Not a ton but noticeable.

the apex also look better IMO, the spoke shape is more dnyamic and curved. But the r357 look real good too.

Is that per wheel?

Full set 10x19.

Why does it give me a feel that it is silver ? It looks very bright in this way (maybe because of the light) do a you have a pic put on your vehicle?

IIRC, central PA has 6% tax, so after calculation the price is around $1475 w/o tax, which looks same as current sale price. I believe that would the lowest price. Overall it looks pretty nice!

Bad lighting. Think Hershey milk chocolate bar color. I'll go take an outside pic. But since the spokes are so few and thin it doesn't have a strong color effect like others.
