Apex SM-10RE 19x9.5 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET22 / 72.56mm CB - Anthracite (BMW) SM10RE1995ET22-5120-7256-AN
The Apex SM-10RE was developed for drivers who demand uncompromising strength, stiffness, and endurance from their wheels under the harshest track conditions. As the forged Enduro version of the highly respected SM-10 platform, the SM-10RE is engineered specifically for high-grip tires, aerodynamic downforce, endurance racing, and repeated heavy track abuse where conventional lightweight wheels can fall short.
Unlike many motorsport wheels that prioritize minimal weight above all else, the SM-10RE focuses on maximizing structural integrity while maintaining impressive weight efficiency. Apex reinforced key stress areas throughout the wheel, resulting in a forged wheel that is approximately 30 percent stronger than the RS version while delivering exceptional steering response and stability.
Enduro-Grade Strength
The SM-10RE features Apexs reinforced Enduro Spec inner lip, their strongest lip design ever produced. With 50 percent more reinforcement than standard configurations, these wheels are built to better withstand aggressive curbing, rough surfaces, potholes, and repeated endurance racing punishment.
An upgraded reinforced front lip adds further durability during heavy track use and berm impacts while maintaining the aggressive motorsport styling that defines the SM-10RE platform.
Every wheel is manufactured from fully forged 6061-T6 aluminum using an advanced 10,000 ton forging process. This immense pressure improves grain structure, increases material density, and minimizes porosity to create an exceptionally strong and durable forged wheel.
Stiffer Spokes for Improved Handling
The SM-10RE incorporates redesigned side-milled spokes that are approximately 20 to 25 percent stiffer than Apex Sprint Line wheels. Increased spoke rigidity helps reduce camber loss under heavy cornering loads, improving steering feel, tire stability, and overall responsiveness while reducing outer shoulder tire wear.
Precision CNC side-milling removes unnecessary material from low-stress areas without sacrificing structural strength, helping keep rotational mass under control while maintaining endurance-level durability.
Motorsport-Focused Engineering
Rather than relying on generic third-party forgings, Apex developed proprietary motorsport-specific forging blanks to maximize spoke geometry, brake clearance, concavity, and structural optimization.
Extensive Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was utilized during development to strengthen high-load areas while eliminating unnecessary material wherever possible. This allows the SM-10RE to achieve significantly greater strength with only a minimal weight increase over lightweight Sprint Line alternatives.
Using detailed 3D laser scans of factory and aftermarket brake systems, Apex engineered vehicle-specific spoke profiles and high-clearance barrel designs to maximize brake compatibility for demanding BMW performance applications.
Track-Ready Features
The SM-10RE incorporates multiple race-inspired details including paintless knurled beads that help prevent tire slippage during aggressive acceleration and braking, paintless barrels to reduce rotational inertia, oversized lug openings compatible with impact sockets and race hardware, and laser-engraved wheel specifications for easy identification during trackside wheel changes.
All Apex Enduro Line wheels are independently tested by ITS in Michigan under loads and testing durations exceeding standard JWL requirements for additional confidence during high-performance driving.

FAQs
What makes the SM-10RE different from the standard SM-10 or SM-10RS?
The SM-10RE is the reinforced Enduro version designed specifically for endurance racing and high-load motorsport environments. It features increased structural reinforcement, higher load ratings, stiffer spokes, and reinforced lip designs for maximum durability.
Will these wheels clear large aftermarket brake kits?
Yes. Apex engineered the SM-10RE with extensive brake clearance in mind using 3D scans of factory and aftermarket brake systems to maximize caliper clearance for performance applications.
