Forged Performance Inspired by Motorsport Heritage
The ML-10RT captures the iconic appearance of classic touring car and sports car racing wheels while incorporating the benefits of modern monoblock forged construction. Apex engineers utilized advanced design and manufacturing techniques to create a wheel that delivers improved strength, stiffness, and reduced weight compared to traditional multi-piece designs.

Advanced Side-Milled Spoke Design
The extra-deep side-milled spokes remove unnecessary material while maintaining structural integrity. This precision machining process helps reduce rotational mass while enhancing the wheel's distinctive motorsport-inspired appearance.
Race Silver Machined Lip Finish
The Race Silver center combined with a machined outer lip creates a timeless motorsport aesthetic that complements a wide variety of vehicle colors and builds. The machined lip receives a durable gloss clear coat, eliminating the maintenance requirements commonly associated with polished finishes.
