Apex EC-7RS 19x13 Forged Wheel - Porsche Center Lock / ET45 / 101mm CB - Anthracite (EC7RS1913ET45-CL-PS-AN)
Built for drivers who demand every possible advantage on track, the Apex EC-7RS combines an ultra-lightweight forged construction with the durability required for serious motorsport use. As part of Apex's Sprint Line, the EC-7RS takes the proven EC-7 design and pushes it even further through advanced forging technology, aggressive weight reduction, and reinforcement of critical load-bearing areas. The result is a wheel engineered to help improve lap times while maintaining the strength and reliability needed for repeated track abuse.
Manufactured from a proprietary 10K Ton forged 6061-T6 aluminum blank, the EC-7RS benefits from improved grain structure and reduced porosity for exceptional strength. Apex engineers utilized extensive Finite Element Analysis (FEA), side-milled spoke technology, a reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip, and independent third-party testing to create a wheel that delivers lightweight performance without sacrificing durability.

Engineering for Maximum Performance
The EC-7RS starts life as a massive forged blank weighing up to 120 pounds before machining. Using specialized 10,000 metric ton forging equipment, Apex creates an exceptionally dense aluminum structure that improves strength and durability. Extensive CNC machining then removes unnecessary material while preserving critical reinforcement zones, resulting in a wheel that is remarkably light yet built to withstand demanding track conditions.
Advanced Sprint Wheel Technology
Apex's Sprint engineering philosophy focuses on optimizing every gram without compromising structural integrity. Wider and deeper side-milled spokes remove excess material while maintaining rigidity. The strengthened Sprint Spec inner lip further improves impact resistance, while paintless knurled bead seats help maintain tire position under hard acceleration and braking.
Track-Focused Brake Clearance
The EC-7RS benefits from Apex's extensive brake clearance development program. Utilizing detailed 3D scans of factory and aftermarket brake systems, Apex created application-specific spoke profiles and high-clearance barrel designs capable of accommodating many large brake packages commonly used in motorsport environments.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing Porsche Center Lock Hub System and 101mm Center Bore
- Verify Brake Clearance, Suspension Clearance, Fender Clearance, and Tire Fitment Prior to Installation
