Apex SL-12RT 19x11 Forged Touring Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET44 / 72.56mm CB - Race Silver Machined Lip (BMW) (SL12RT1911ET44-5120-7256-MLRS)
The Apex SL-12RT brings an aggressive new visual identity to Apexs Forged Touring Line while delivering the lightweight strength and motorsport engineering BMW enthusiasts demand. Designed specifically for performance-focused BMW applications, this 19x11 forged wheel combines a muscular 12 straight spoke layout with deep-lip styling, advanced forged construction, and race-proven engineering features that elevate both appearance and on-road performance.
Finished in Race Silver with a Machined Lip, the SL-12RT blends classic motorsport inspiration with modern forged wheel technology. Built from fully forged 6061-T6 aluminum using an extreme 10,000 ton forging process, this wheel was engineered to improve rigidity, reduce unnecessary weight, and withstand the abuse of both aggressive street driving and track use. Apexs signature side-milled spokes, Sprint Spec inner lip reinforcement, and vehicle-specific spoke profiles separate the SL-12RT from ordinary forged wheels by delivering true functional performance rather than cosmetic-only styling.

Motorsport Engineering Without Compromise
The SL-12RT was engineered with a focus on real-world performance rather than cosmetic trends. Apex designed proprietary forged blanks specifically for motorsport applications, giving engineers greater control over spoke geometry, brake clearance, concavity, and overall wheel strength. Combined with extensive 3D vehicle scanning technology, each fitment is optimized around BMW factory and popular aftermarket brake packages.
The reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip adds substantially more material to one of the wheels highest stress areas, helping improve durability against potholes, curbing, and track abuse. Unlike cosmetic side milling found on many aftermarket wheels, Apexs CNC-machined spoke pockets are engineered to deliver meaningful weight reduction while maintaining structural integrity.
Race Silver Finish with Touring Line Presence
The Race Silver Machined Lip finish delivers a clean motorsport-inspired appearance that perfectly complements modern BMW styling. The SL-12RT maintains a consistent outer lip profile across the Touring Line lineup, giving even conservative fitments a deep-lip look while allowing aggressive applications to maximize concavity for a more dramatic visual profile.
