Apex SM-10RS 18x10 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET36 / 71.6mm CB - Motorsport Gold (Porsche) - SM10RS1810ET36-5130-716-MGD
The Apex SM-10RS was engineered for Porsche enthusiasts who demand lightweight performance without sacrificing durability or rigidity. Finished in an aggressive Motorsport Gold coating, this fully forged wheel combines race-inspired styling with the strength and precision required for serious street driving, track days, and competitive motorsports use.
As part of Apexs Sprint Line forged wheel lineup, the SM-10RS utilizes proprietary motorsport-specific forgings produced under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure. This advanced forging process improves aluminum grain structure while minimizing porosity for exceptional strength. Extensive Finite Element Analysis was used to optimize spoke geometry, reinforce critical stress zones, and eliminate unnecessary weight. The result is a wheel with exceptional stiffness, massive brake clearance, reinforced Sprint spec inner lips, and lightweight performance that inspires confidence under demanding driving conditions.
