Apex SM-10RS 17x9.5 Forged Wheel - 5x114.3 BP / ET51 / 70.1mm CB - Satin Bronze (Honda) - SM10RS1795ET51B-51143-701-NSBZ
The Apex SM-10RS was built for drivers who demand elite motorsport performance without compromise. Developed as part of Apexs Sprint Line forged wheel lineup, the SM-10RS combines ultra-lightweight construction with exceptional rigidity and durability for serious street and track applications. Finished in an aggressive Satin Bronze finish, this 17x9.5 configuration delivers race-ready styling backed by advanced forged engineering.
Constructed from fully forged 6061-T6 aluminum using an immense 10,000 metric ton forging process, the SM-10RS offers exceptional strength through improved material density and grain structure. Apex engineered this wheel using extensive Finite Element Analysis to remove unnecessary material while reinforcing critical stress areas, resulting in a wheel that is remarkably lightweight while maintaining outstanding structural integrity under extreme driving conditions.
Purpose-Built Sprint Line Performance
Unlike many forged wheels built around generic third-party blanks, the SM-10RS utilizes proprietary motorsport-specific forged blanks designed entirely by Apex. This approach provides optimized brake clearance, deeper concavity, improved spoke geometry, and enhanced rigidity for demanding performance applications.
The advanced I-beam spoke design incorporates extensive side milling to reduce rotational mass without sacrificing strength. Apex also reinforced the wheel using its Sprint spec inner lip profile, improving impact resistance and load capacity. Paintless knurled bead seats help minimize tire slippage under hard acceleration and braking, while oversized race lug compatibility makes trackside wheel swaps fast and efficient.
