Apex SM-10RS 17x9 Forged Wheel - 5x100 BP / ET48 / 56.1mm CB - Brushed Clear (Toyota 86 / Subaru BRZ) - SM10RS179ET48-5100-561-BC
The Apex SM-10RS was designed for enthusiasts who demand true motorsport performance without compromising strength or reliability. As part of Apexs Sprint Line forged wheel lineup, the SM-10RS combines advanced forging technology, aggressive weight optimization, and reinforced structural engineering to deliver exceptional performance for both street and track applications. Finished in a premium Brushed Clear finish, this 17x9 configuration offers aggressive styling, outstanding brake clearance, and increased stiffness for drivers who push their cars hard.
Manufactured using custom motorsport-specific forgings formed under an immense 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the SM-10RS achieves remarkable strength while remaining exceptionally lightweight. Apex engineers utilized extensive Finite Element Analysis testing to strategically remove unnecessary material while reinforcing critical stress points throughout the wheel. The result is a forged wheel with improved rigidity, a reinforced Sprint spec inner lip, and the durability needed to withstand aggressive launches, heavy braking, and repeated track abuse.
