Apex SM-10RS 18x10.5 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET44 / 71.6mm CB - Anthracite (Porsche) - SM10RS18105ET44-5130-716-AN
The Apex SM-10RS was built for Porsche enthusiasts who demand lightweight performance without sacrificing strength, durability, or brake clearance. As part of Apexs Sprint Line forged wheel lineup, the SM-10RS combines cutting-edge forged construction, aggressive weight reduction, and race-proven engineering to create a wheel equally at home on canyon roads, road courses, and high-performance street builds. Finished in a sleek Anthracite finish, this 18x10.5 setup delivers deep concavity, exceptional stiffness, and the motorsport-inspired styling Porsche owners expect.
Manufactured from custom motorsport-specific forgings formed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the SM-10RS achieves exceptional structural integrity while remaining impressively lightweight. Apex engineers used extensive Finite Element Analysis testing to strategically reinforce critical stress areas while removing unnecessary mass throughout the wheel design. The result is a forged wheel featuring a stronger Sprint spec inner lip, enhanced rigidity, and the durability required for repeated high-load performance driving.
