Modern Engineering Meets Motorsport Heritage
The ML-10RT pays tribute to the mesh-style wheels that defined an era of touring car and sports car racing while utilizing modern monoblock forged construction. Apex engineers leveraged the latest forging technology and proprietary blank designs to create a wheel that delivers outstanding performance without sacrificing the timeless styling enthusiasts appreciate.
Reinforced Sprint Spec Inner Lip
Borrowed from Apex's race-proven Sprint Line wheels, the reinforced inner lip significantly increases strength in one of the wheel's most vulnerable areas. Additional material is strategically added where impacts and loads are greatest, helping improve durability during aggressive driving, track use, and encounters with rough road conditions.
Advanced Side-Milled Spoke Technology
The ML-10RT features aggressive side-milled spokes that remove excess material without compromising structural integrity. Precision CNC machining helps reduce weight while creating a distinctive visual contrast that enhances the wheel's motorsport-inspired appearance.
Signature Machined Lip Design
As Apex's first forged wheel featuring a machined outer lip, the ML-10RT delivers a distinctive appearance that stands apart from conventional wheel designs. The gloss clear-coated machined lip provides the classic deep-lip look enthusiasts love without requiring routine polishing or special maintenance.
