Apex SM-10RS 17x9 Forged Wheel - 5x100 BP / ET35 / 56.1mm CB - Brushed Clear (Toyota 86 / Subaru BRZ) - SM10RS179ET35-5100-561-BC
Built for drivers who refuse to compromise between lightweight performance and real-world durability, the Apex SM-10RS delivers true forged motorsport engineering in a street-and-track-ready package. Part of Apexs Sprint Line forged wheel lineup, the SM-10RS utilizes advanced manufacturing processes, optimized spoke geometry, and reinforced structural design to create a wheel that is exceptionally light while remaining incredibly strong under demanding driving conditions.
Finished in a premium Brushed Clear finish, this 17x9 configuration combines aggressive styling with serious performance capability. Apex engineered the SM-10RS using extensive Finite Element Analysis testing to strategically remove unnecessary material while reinforcing critical stress areas. The result is improved stiffness, exceptional brake clearance, and a reinforced Sprint spec inner lip that stands up to repeated hard launches, heavy braking, and track abuse without sacrificing weight savings.
