Flow Formed Engineering
The SM-10 utilizes advanced flow forming technology to create a wheel that delivers forged-like strength characteristics without the premium cost associated with full forging. During production, the barrel is spun and compressed under high pressure to improve aluminum grain structure and stiffness while reducing overall weight.
Apex also uses extensive Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to reinforce critical stress areas while machining away excess material that does not contribute to structural integrity.
Built for Track and Street Use
The reinforced inner lip provides additional protection in the wheels most vulnerable area, helping withstand potholes, curbing, and harsh track conditions. Combined with Apexs aggressive brake clearance engineering and lightweight construction, the SM-10 is equally at home on the street or road course.
Satin Black Finish
The Satin Black finish delivers a timeless, aggressive appearance that pairs perfectly with modern Chevrolet performance vehicles. The smooth satin coating highlights the wheels sharp spoke design and deep concavity while maintaining a clean motorsport-inspired aesthetic.
Fitment
- Chevrolet applications utilizing 5x120.65 bolt pattern and 70.3mm center bore
- Verify brake clearance, suspension clearance, and tire fitment prior to installation
