Apex SM-10RS 18x11 Forged Wheel - 5x114.3 BP / ET52 / 70.5mm CB - Satin Bronze (Ford) - SM10RS1811ET52-51143-705-NSBZ
Designed for enthusiasts who demand uncompromising performance, the Apex SM-10RS combines ultra-light forged construction with motorsport-grade durability for serious street and track use. Finished in an aggressive Satin Bronze finish, this 18x11 wheel delivers deep concavity, massive brake clearance, and race-inspired styling that perfectly complements modern Ford performance builds.
As part of Apexs Sprint Line forged wheel lineup, the SM-10RS is engineered using custom 6061-T6 forged aluminum blanks compressed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure. Apex then utilizes extensive Finite Element Analysis to strategically remove unnecessary material while reinforcing high-stress areas for improved rigidity and impact resistance. The result is a lightweight forged wheel engineered to handle demanding track conditions without sacrificing strength or reliability.
