Ok, I found! Yeah.

We must set a upload_tmp_dir (instead the default upload_dir). And this folder must have your rights.
By default, this folder has root:wheel (in 1777 mod). So, when Apache copies uploaded files from this folder, it keep the wheel group.

Hope this tip could help others persons.

Thanks for your time and your advices.
