The M017 looks like an SS/1LE wheel, but there is a difference in spec. The fronts have an ET23 offset whereas a genuine 1LE front wheel has an ET20 offset. So the MRR moves the front wheel inward a little compared to the 1LE.

EC-7 vs SM-10 question. Huge price difference currently with the only big advantage to the SM-10 is the knurled bead to prevent tire rotation. Anyone have issues with tire rotation on the EC-7 or others that don't have a knurled bead?

No, no issue at all for me. I’ve only run 200 treadwear street tires.

Good to know. I marked my stock setup to see if there was rotation and it's showing the rears have rotated about 3" since mounted. The front has 3/4" rotation. I've never felt anything while driving it and have 8 track days on this set. The rotation may only be an issue if it throws the tire out of balance.

I'm on a few and haven't seen anything. Most of those groups have the same people. One person posting across three groups could make a single instance look more common if that makes sense. That unfortunately seems to be norm with social media groups. Two people have issues with wheels and now the 200 are posting that they "heard" brand X wheels bend at the track.

And there's the issue that some people on the FB pages think that anything cheaper than the really high dollar FORGED wheels are worthless and can't be trusted on track...

The Apex wheels get the job done, Provoste is proof enough of that haha probably has about a thousand laps on them by now!

All the rubber you pick up on track and get stuck in the groves and melted into the top throws the balance off typically way more than slippage.

I put in an order through Tire Rack and was told they are expecting the next batch next spring.....

Goodyear supposedly has new supercar 3's in 19"s but they appear to be out of stock as well right now.....

When I talked to Tire Rack a month ago, they said they expect the 305/30/19 SC3s to be in mid to late August. Would be nice to have the option sooner than later.

295/30/19 G3's in stock at TireRack and are only 0.4" narrower if you don't want to wait on the 305's. The 325/30/19's are in stock as well.
