Apex SM-10RS 18x10 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET36 / 71.6mm CB - Satin Black (Porsche) - SM10RS1810ET36-5130-716-NSBK
Built for drivers who demand true motorsport performance from their Porsche, the Apex SM-10RS combines advanced forged construction with aggressive styling and race-ready engineering. Finished in a sleek Satin Black coating, this Sprint Line wheel delivers the perfect blend of lightweight responsiveness, exceptional stiffness, and long-term durability for both street and track use.
The SM-10RS starts with Apexs proprietary motorsport-specific forged blanks, formed under an immense 10,000 metric tons of pressure to optimize the aluminum grain structure and maximize strength. Extensive Finite Element Analysis allowed Apex engineers to strategically remove excess material while reinforcing critical stress areas, resulting in a wheel that is remarkably lightweight without compromising reliability. From the reinforced Sprint spec inner lip to the deep concave spoke profile and massive brake clearance, every detail was engineered for high-performance Porsche applications.

FAQs
What makes the Apex SM-10RS different from a flow formed wheel?
The SM-10RS uses fully forged 6061-T6 aluminum construction, allowing Apex to reduce weight while significantly improving strength, stiffness, and impact resistance compared to traditional flow formed wheels.
Will this wheel clear large brake kits?
The SM-10RS was engineered with a high-clearance barrel and application-specific spoke profiles to maximize brake clearance for many factory and aftermarket big brake setups.
