Well just heard from LMR, they are doing away with the silver r357 wheels, which is why they are on sale right now. Sounds like I’ll be going apex when my car comes in.

R357 are slightly lighter according to specs at internet. They are also less expensive. Stylistically they follow the same direction. I'd only consider apex if they were lighter.

Besides the fact that the EC7 looks infinitely better (IMHO), quality is probably better. Those will be my next set of wheels. Either black or gunmetal.
Lol, infinitely better? In what way? They look almost identical except for the fact the SVE 357's have more extended spokes which to my eyes makes the SVE's look better. Also you can get the SVE's in 10 and 11 inch widths.

For the price and weight nothing beats SVE or any wheel they make really. And once you replace the center cap with a gt350 cap the wheels are unbeatable for the price in attraction and looks. Add in the fact that they’re 22-23lbs each and why are we even debating this. To me the Apex have a lot less shape but that’s subjective and seem to appeal to BMW more as a wheel. I wouldn’t associate the wheel with a mustang. Again though all opinion. Just what I see.
