Modern Forged Performance
The ML-10RT utilizes Apex's proprietary forged motorsport blanks rather than generic third-party forgings. This gives Apex engineers complete control over spoke geometry, concavity, brake clearance, and structural integrity. The result is a wheel engineered to deliver exceptional performance, durability, and weight savings for serious enthusiasts.
Deep Side-Milled Spoke Technology
Each spoke incorporates aggressive side milling using precision CNC machining. Material that does not contribute to strength is removed, reducing weight while maintaining structural rigidity. This process also creates the distinctive sculpted spoke appearance that sets the ML-10RT apart.
Sprint Spec Inner Lip Strength
Borrowed from Apex's race-proven Sprint Line wheels, the reinforced inner lip adds critical strength to the wheel's most vulnerable impact area. The additional material improves resistance to potholes, curbing, and harsh road conditions while maintaining the performance characteristics expected from a forged wheel.
Engineered Brake Clearance
Using Apex's extensive 3D vehicle scanning database, each fitment receives its own optimized spoke profile. This approach maximizes brake clearance while preserving the aggressive concavity and deep-lip styling that define the ML-10RT.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing 5x130 Bolt Pattern and 71.6mm Center Bore
- Verify Brake Clearance, Suspension Clearance, and Tire Fitment Prior to Installation
FAQs
Does the ML-10RT require special center caps?
No. The wheel is engineered to accept compatible OEM Porsche center caps and also includes Apex center caps.
Will the machined lip require regular polishing?
