We have clearance, Clarence.
Our original flow formed ARC-8 was our first wheel design, and utilizes an older barrel profile that can have compromised brake clearance with certain BBK setups. With the forged ARC-8R, we took everything we learned from the original ARC-8 and applied it to the ground-up development of our all-new profiles and dies. This resulted in a tremendous increase in brake clearance when compared to the flow formed design, with an inner barrel that can clear all the way up to the colossal 380mm Brembo BBK with ease.
To learn more about the obstacles we faced when developing these zero-compromise barrel profiles and dies, along with how we worked to overcome them, please feel free to check out our blog post that dives deep into the topic of forged wheel brake clearances.

To help show off our new 18” ARC-8R forged wheels, our friend Daniel (@dsc_lol) stopped by our shop with his Yas Marina F82 M4 track car for a photoshoot. Mounting the 18x10” ET25 ARC-8R wheels over the massive Brembo 380mm BBK on this M4 was a breeze. With the dramatically increased barrel clearance that the ARC-8R brings to the table, these new forged wheels are able to go where our original flow formed ARC-8 wheels never could.
