Apex SM-10RS 17x9 Forged Wheel - 5x100 BP / ET48 / 56.1mm CB - Satin Black (Toyota 86 / Subaru BRZ) - SM10RS179ET48-5100-561-NSBK
The Apex SM-10RS was engineered for enthusiasts who demand uncompromising performance from every component on their vehicle. As part of Apexs Sprint Line forged wheel collection, the SM-10RS combines advanced forging technology, aggressive weight optimization, and reinforced structural engineering to create a wheel that excels under demanding street and track conditions. Finished in a stealthy Satin Black finish, this 17x9 setup delivers aggressive styling, exceptional brake clearance, and increased stiffness for serious performance driving.
Built using custom motorsport-specific forgings formed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the SM-10RS achieves outstanding strength while remaining remarkably lightweight. Apex utilized extensive Finite Element Analysis testing to strategically remove excess material while reinforcing critical stress areas throughout the wheel structure. The result is improved rigidity, a reinforced Sprint spec inner lip, and a forged wheel capable of handling repeated hard launches, heavy braking, and aggressive cornering without compromise.
