Apex SM-10RS 18x11 Forged Wheel - 5x120.65 BP / ET38 / 70.3mm CB - Motorsport Gold (Chevrolet) - SM10RS1811ET38-512065-703-MGD
The Apex SM-10RS was developed for Chevrolet enthusiasts who demand true motorsport performance from a fully forged wheel. Finished in an eye-catching Motorsport Gold finish, this 18x11 Sprint Line wheel combines lightweight construction, aggressive concavity, and race-proven durability to create the ideal setup for high-performance street and track applications.
Manufactured from proprietary 6061-T6 forged aluminum blanks using an immense 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the SM-10RS delivers exceptional structural strength while minimizing unnecessary weight. Apex engineers then utilized extensive Finite Element Analysis to optimize spoke geometry, reinforce critical load zones, and eliminate excess material. The result is a forged wheel with increased stiffness, massive brake clearance, and reinforced impact resistance built to withstand demanding driving conditions and high-grip tire setups.
