Apex SM-10 18x9.5 Flow-Formed Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET22 / 72.56mm CB - Anthracite (BMW) (SM101895ET22-5120-7256-AN)
The Apex SM-10 combines aggressive motorsport styling with advanced lightweight engineering to deliver exceptional performance for BMW enthusiasts who demand both strength and reduced rotational mass. Designed as part of Apexs proven Flow Formed Evolution Line, the SM-10 features reinforced structural elements, massive brake clearance, and advanced CNC machining technology for uncompromising street and track capability.
Finished in a striking Anthracite finish, this 18x9.5 SM-10 delivers an aggressive concave profile while maintaining the durability and performance Apex wheels are known for. Built using advanced flow-forming technology and FEA optimization, the SM-10 offers impressive strength without the premium cost of fully forged wheels.
Flow Formed Evolution Technology
Apex utilizes advanced flow-forming manufacturing to improve barrel strength and stiffness while minimizing unnecessary weight. This process enhances the aluminum grain structure, allowing for a lighter wheel that maintains excellent durability under demanding driving conditions.
CNC-Machined I-Beam Spokes
The SM-10 features Apexs signature I-beam spoke machining, where excess material is precisely removed using CNC ball-cutting technology. This process reduces rotational weight while maintaining the structural integrity required for high-performance driving.
Reinforced Inner Lip
The inner lip receives additional reinforcement to improve impact resistance against potholes, berms, and harsh track conditions. Apex engineered this critical area to withstand the abuse associated with aggressive driving and motorsport use.
Deep Concavity and Brake Clearance
By utilizing optimized face profiles and extensive laser scanning during development, the SM-10 delivers aggressive concavity while maintaining excellent clearance for large factory and aftermarket brake systems.
Weight Optimized Construction
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was used extensively throughout the wheel design process to strengthen high-stress areas while removing unnecessary material from low-load zones. The result is a lightweight wheel engineered for maximum performance.
