Forged Strength Inspired by Motorsport
The ML-10RT was born from Apex's passion for classic motorsport design and modern engineering excellence. By utilizing proprietary forged blanks rather than generic third-party forgings, Apex engineers gained complete control over wheel geometry, spoke design, brake clearance, and overall performance characteristics.
Advanced Side-Milled Spoke Technology
Each ML-10RT incorporates Apex's aggressive side-milling process, removing excess material that does not contribute to structural strength. This precision CNC machining reduces rotational mass while creating a deeper and more dramatic spoke profile that enhances both performance and aesthetics.
Sprint Spec Inner Lip Reinforcement
Borrowed from Apex Sprint Line wheel development, the reinforced inner lip strengthens one of the wheel's most vulnerable impact zones. This added reinforcement improves durability against potholes, curbing, and harsh driving conditions while maintaining lightweight performance characteristics.
Vehicle-Specific Engineering
The ML-10RT's deep-lip design creates unique brake clearance challenges. Apex utilizes extensive 3D vehicle scanning and engineering analysis to optimize spoke geometry around OEM and popular aftermarket brake systems, maximizing brake clearance while preserving aggressive concavity.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing 5x120.65 Bolt Pattern and 70.3mm Center Bore
- Verify Brake Clearance, Suspension Clearance, and Tire Fitment Prior to Installation
FAQs
Can OEM TPMS sensors be used with this wheel?
Yes. The ML-10RT accepts OEM and aftermarket TPMS sensors along with standard valve stems.
Does the machined lip require regular polishing?
No. The machined lip is protected by a gloss clear coat, eliminating the need for routine polishing while maintaining its premium appearance.
