Forged Performance with Heritage Motorsport Styling
The ML-10RT pays homage to some of the most recognizable wheel designs in motorsport history while incorporating the latest forging technology available today. Apex engineers focused on reducing weight, increasing stiffness, improving durability, and maximizing brake clearance without sacrificing the wheel's iconic deep-lip appearance.
Sprint Spec Inner Lip Reinforcement
Borrowed directly from Apex's race-developed Sprint Line wheels, the reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip adds critical material where impact loads are highest. This additional reinforcement improves resistance to potholes, curbing, and harsh driving conditions while maintaining a lightweight forged structure.
Vehicle-Specific BMW Engineering
Using Apex's extensive 3D vehicle scanning library, each ML-10RT application receives a dedicated spoke profile optimized for brake clearance, fitment, and concavity. This engineering-first approach allows Apex to achieve an ideal balance between performance, appearance, and functionality.
Race Silver Machined Lip Finish
The Race Silver Machined Lip finish delivers a timeless motorsport appearance that complements virtually any BMW color combination. The bright silver mesh center paired with the machined outer lip creates a clean and purposeful look that feels equally at home on a street build, track car, autocross machine, or weekend canyon carver.
