Modern Forged Engineering
The ML-10RT takes inspiration from legendary touring car racing designs while utilizing advanced monoblock forging technology. Compared to traditional multi-piece wheels, the forged construction delivers improved stiffness, reduced weight, and greater durability without sacrificing the iconic deep-lip aesthetic enthusiasts love.
Reinforced Sprint Inner Lip Technology
Borrowed from Apex's race-focused Sprint wheel program, the reinforced inner lip adds critical strength to one of the wheel's most vulnerable areas. This engineering enhancement improves impact resistance and durability while maintaining the lightweight performance expected from a forged wheel.
Precision Side-Milled Spokes
Aggressive side milling removes excess material from each spoke using advanced CNC machining processes. This design reduces rotational mass, sharpens vehicle response, and creates the distinctive depth and visual detail that define the ML-10RT.
Race Silver Machined Lip Finish
The Race Silver finish paired with the signature machined lip creates a clean, timeless motorsport appearance that complements both modern and classic BMW builds. The machined lip is protected by a gloss clear coat for long-lasting durability and easy maintenance.
Fitment
