Modern Forged Performance
While the ML-10RT draws inspiration from legendary motorsport wheel designs, its engineering is entirely modern. Apex utilizes proprietary forged blanks and advanced manufacturing techniques to create a monoblock wheel that is lighter, stronger, and stiffer than traditional multi-piece wheel designs. This combination delivers improved performance, responsiveness, and durability for demanding enthusiasts.
Sprint Spec Inner Lip Strength
Borrowed directly from Apex's race-focused Sprint Line wheels, the reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip adds substantial material where it matters most. This critical reinforcement improves impact resistance and durability when encountering potholes, curbing, and aggressive track conditions while maintaining optimal weight characteristics.
Side-Milled Spoke Engineering
The ML-10RT incorporates deep side-milling along each spoke using precision CNC machining. By removing unnecessary material without compromising structural integrity, Apex reduces rotational mass while enhancing both performance and visual appeal. The result is a lighter wheel with striking dimensional styling.
Anthracite Machined Lip Finish
The Anthracite finish combined with the signature machined lip creates a bold motorsport-inspired appearance. A durable gloss clear coat protects the machined surface, eliminating the need for polishing while maintaining long-term appearance and corrosion resistance.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing 5x114.3 Bolt Pattern and 70.5mm Center Bore
