Forged Motorsport Engineering
The ML-10RT was engineered from the ground up using Apex's proprietary forged motorsport blanks. Unlike generic forged wheel blanks, these purpose-built forgings provide greater flexibility for optimizing spoke design, brake clearance, concavity, and structural integrity. The result is a wheel that delivers exceptional real-world performance on both the street and track.
Advanced Side-Milled Spoke Design
Each ML-10RT incorporates Apex's aggressive side-milling technology. Precision CNC machining removes material that does not contribute to strength, reducing rotational weight while creating a dramatic spoke profile that enhances both performance and visual appeal.
Sprint Spec Inner Lip Reinforcement
Adapted from Apex's race-proven Sprint Line wheels, the reinforced inner lip adds substantial strength to one of the wheel's most vulnerable impact zones. This additional material improves durability against potholes, curbing, and demanding driving environments without sacrificing performance.
Engineered Brake Clearance
Through extensive 3D scanning and vehicle-specific engineering, Apex optimized each ML-10RT fitment to maximize brake clearance while preserving the aggressive concavity and deep-lip styling enthusiasts expect. This approach ensures proper clearance for many OEM and aftermarket brake packages.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing 5x130 Bolt Pattern and 71.6mm Center Bore
- Verify Brake Clearance, Suspension Clearance, and Tire Fitment Prior to Installation
FAQs
Can this wheel accept OEM Porsche center caps?
Yes. The ML-10RT is engineered to accept compatible OEM Porsche center caps while also including Apex center caps.
Does the machined lip require polishing?
