Apex EC-7RS 19x9.5 Forged Wheel 5x120 BP / ET22 / 72.56mm CB - Satin Black (BMW) (EC7RS1995ET22-5120-7256-NSBK)
The Apex EC-7RS is the ultimate evolution of the iconic EC-7 design, engineered for BMW enthusiasts who demand every possible advantage on the street and track. As part of Apex's Sprint Line of forged wheels, the EC-7RS combines ultra-lightweight construction with exceptional strength, helping improve acceleration, braking response, handling precision, and overall vehicle performance. Finished in Satin Black, this wheel delivers a purposeful motorsport appearance backed by race-proven engineering.
Manufactured from a proprietary 10K Ton forged 6061-T6 aluminum blank, the EC-7RS was developed to eliminate unnecessary weight while reinforcing critical structural areas. Extensive Finite Element Analysis, advanced side-milling techniques, independent third-party testing, and a reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip all contribute to a wheel that delivers outstanding durability without sacrificing performance.

Sprint Forged Wheel Technology
Each EC-7RS begins as a forged aluminum blank weighing up to 120 pounds before machining. Apex utilizes specialized 10,000 metric ton forging equipment to create an exceptionally dense aluminum structure with improved grain flow and reduced porosity. This advanced manufacturing process produces a stronger foundation that allows engineers to aggressively reduce weight while maintaining outstanding structural integrity.
Optimized for Lightweight Strength
Through extensive Finite Element Analysis and real-world testing, Apex engineers identified areas where material could be removed without compromising durability. Wider and deeper side-milled spokes further reduce weight, while strategically reinforced sections improve strength in critical load-bearing areas. The result is a wheel that remains exceptionally light while delivering the confidence needed for demanding driving conditions.
Engineered for Big Brake Clearance
Using detailed 3D scans of factory and aftermarket braking systems, Apex developed application-specific spoke profiles and a high-clearance barrel design capable of accommodating many large brake packages. This allows enthusiasts to maximize braking performance while maintaining proper wheel fitment and aggressive styling.
Built for Track Duty
The reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip, paintless knurled bead seats, and rigorous independent testing all contribute to the EC-7RS's ability to withstand the rigors of high-performance driving. These features help improve impact resistance, maintain tire stability under heavy acceleration and braking, and provide long-term durability for serious enthusiasts.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing 5x120 Bolt Pattern and 72.56mm Center Bore
- Verify Brake Clearance, Suspension Clearance, and Tire Fitment Prior to Installation
