Apex EC-7RS 19x9 Forged Wheel 5x130 BP / ET50 / 71.6mm CB - Satin Black (Porsche) (EC7RS199ET50-5130-716-SMBK)
The Apex EC-7RS is the lightest and most advanced evolution of the legendary EC-7 design, engineered specifically for Porsche enthusiasts who demand maximum performance without compromise. As part of Apex's Sprint Line of forged wheels, the EC-7RS combines aggressive weight reduction, enhanced structural strength, and exceptional brake clearance to help improve acceleration, braking, steering response, and overall track 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 benefits from superior material density and improved grain structure compared to conventional wheel manufacturing methods. Through extensive Finite Element Analysis, advanced CNC machining, side-milled spoke technology, and rigorous independent testing, Apex has developed a wheel that delivers exceptional durability while maintaining the ultra-lightweight characteristics demanded by serious performance drivers.

Sprint Forged Technology
Every EC-7RS starts as a forged aluminum blank weighing up to 120 pounds before machining. Using specialized 10,000 metric ton forging equipment, Apex creates an exceptionally dense aluminum structure with improved grain flow and reduced porosity. This advanced manufacturing process creates a stronger foundation that allows engineers to aggressively reduce weight while maintaining long-term durability.
Engineered for Lightweight Strength
Apex engineers utilized extensive Finite Element Analysis and real-world testing to identify areas where material could be removed without compromising structural integrity. Wider and deeper side-milled spokes eliminate unnecessary mass while strategically reinforced load-bearing areas help maintain durability during aggressive street driving and repeated track sessions.
Exceptional Brake Clearance
Using detailed 3D scans of factory and aftermarket brake systems, Apex developed application-specific spoke profiles and high-clearance barrel designs capable of accommodating many large brake packages. This allows Porsche enthusiasts to maximize braking performance while maintaining proper wheel fitment and aggressive styling.
Track-Tested Durability
The reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip, paintless knurled bead seats, and rigorous independent testing all contribute to the EC-7RS's ability to withstand demanding driving conditions. These features help improve impact resistance, reduce tire slippage under heavy acceleration and braking, and provide confidence during extended performance driving sessions.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing 5x130 Bolt Pattern and 71.6mm Center Bore
- Verify Brake Clearance, Suspension Clearance, Fender Clearance, and Tire Fitment Prior to Installation
