Flow Formed Performance
The SM-10 utilizes advanced flow forming technology to maximize barrel strength while minimizing weight. During manufacturing, the barrel is compressed and spun under pressure to improve aluminum grain structure and increase rigidity. This process allows Apex engineers to remove unnecessary material while maintaining the durability required for aggressive street driving and track use.
Extensive Finite Element Analysis testing was used to reinforce critical stress areas while optimizing overall wheel weight. The reinforced inner lip provides additional protection against potholes, curbing, and repeated track abuse.
Engineered for Brake Clearance
The SM-10 was engineered using comprehensive laser scanning and repeated test fitting to maximize brake clearance while maintaining aggressive concavity. Apex developed multiple face profiles to optimize fitment across BMW applications, allowing many large OEM and aftermarket brake systems to clear comfortably without requiring oversized wheel diameters.
Anthracite Finish
The Anthracite finish gives the SM-10 a refined motorsport appearance that perfectly complements BMW styling. The darker metallic finish highlights the wheels sharp spoke design and deep concavity while maintaining a clean OEM+ aesthetic.
Fitment
- BMW applications utilizing 5x120 bolt pattern and 72.56mm center bore
- Verify brake clearance, suspension clearance, and tire fitment prior to installation
FAQs
