Apex EC-7RS 19x11 Forged Wheel 5x130 BP / ET45 / 71.6mm CB - Anthracite (Porsche) (EC7RS1911ET45-5130-716-AN)
The Apex EC-7RS takes the proven EC-7 motorsport design and elevates it to an entirely new level of performance. Developed within Apex's Sprint Line forged wheel collection, the EC-7RS was engineered for Porsche enthusiasts seeking maximum performance, reduced rotational mass, and uncompromising durability. Every design decision was made with one objective in mind: helping drivers extract more performance from their cars on both the street and the track.
Built from forged 6061-T6 aluminum and formed under an astonishing 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the EC-7RS delivers exceptional strength while remaining remarkably lightweight. Advanced side-milled spokes, a reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip, paintless knurled bead technology, and application-specific brake clearance make this wheel a serious performance upgrade. Finished in Anthracite, the EC-7RS offers a sophisticated motorsport-inspired appearance that pairs perfectly with modern Porsche styling.

10K Ton Forged Construction
Each EC-7RS begins as a forged aluminum blank weighing as much as 120 pounds before machining. Using specialized equipment capable of producing 10,000 metric tons of pressure, Apex creates a dense aluminum structure with superior grain flow and reduced porosity. This process significantly enhances strength while allowing engineers to remove unnecessary material and reduce overall wheel weight.
Purpose-Built Motorsport Engineering
Unlike manufacturers that rely on generic third-party forgings, Apex developed proprietary forging blanks specifically for motorsport applications. This allows complete control over spoke geometry, barrel design, concavity, and brake clearance, resulting in a wheel optimized for performance rather than manufacturing convenience.
Side-Milled Spokes for Reduced Weight
One of the EC-7RS's defining features is its extensively side-milled spoke design. Precision CNC machining removes excess material that does not contribute to strength, reducing rotational weight while preserving the stiffness required for aggressive driving and competitive motorsports.
Sprint Spec Inner Lip Technology
Apex intentionally strengthened critical impact areas by incorporating its Sprint Spec inner lip design. Rather than sacrificing durability in pursuit of lower weight, the EC-7RS balances lightweight performance with enhanced resistance to impacts encountered during demanding track use.
Brake Clearance Without Compromise
Developed using extensive 3D laser scans of factory and aftermarket brake systems, the EC-7RS delivers exceptional brake clearance. The optimized barrel design and application-specific spoke profiles allow the wheel to accommodate large brake packages while maintaining aggressive concavity and lightweight construction.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing 5x130 Bolt Pattern and 71.6mm Center Bore
- Verify Brake Clearance, Suspension Clearance, and Tire Fitment Prior to Installation
