Apex SM-10RS 19x10.5 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET44 / 71.6mm CB - Anthracite (SM10RS19105ET44-5130-716-AN)
If you're looking for a forged wheel engineered to handle serious performance demands without sacrificing weight, the Apex SM-10RS delivers. As a cornerstone of Apex's Sprint Line, the SM-10RS combines cutting-edge forged construction, advanced structural analysis, and race-proven design features into a wheel built for enthusiasts who expect more from every corner, braking zone, and straightaway.
Starting with a massive 6061-T6 aluminum forging compressed under 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the SM-10RS achieves exceptional strength and durability while maintaining remarkably low weight. Proprietary motorsport-specific forging blanks, aggressive weight optimization, and extensive Finite Element Analysis allow Apex engineers to maximize stiffness, brake clearance, and impact resistance without compromise.

Engineered from True Motorsport Forgings
Unlike wheels built from generic third-party blanks, the SM-10RS utilizes Apex-developed motorsport-specific forgings. This approach provides greater control over spoke design, brake clearance, wheel concavity, and overall structural integrity. The forging process itself dramatically improves material density and grain structure while reducing porosity, resulting in a stronger foundation before machining even begins.
Using advanced Finite Element Analysis, Apex carefully removes unnecessary material while reinforcing high-stress areas. The result is a wheel that remains exceptionally lightweight while maintaining the durability required for aggressive street driving and track use.
Advanced I-Beam Spoke Design
The signature I-beam spoke architecture is one of the SM-10RS's defining performance features. Extensive side milling removes excess material from both sides of every spoke using precision CNC machining. This process lowers weight while maintaining outstanding rigidity and structural integrity.
Combined with optimized spoke geometry, the design produces a wheel that is nearly identical in weight to the VS-5RS while delivering nearly 10% greater stiffness and approximately 25% more stiffness than Apex's original forged wheel designs.
Built for Demanding Performance Applications
The Sprint Spec inner lip incorporates a unique reinforced channel profile that increases impact resistance without adding unnecessary weight. Massive brake clearance accommodates many factory and aftermarket brake packages, while paintless knurled bead seats help reduce tire slippage under repeated hard acceleration and braking.
Every Sprint Line wheel is independently tested by STL in Ohio using standards that exceed traditional JWL requirements. Increased testing loads, greater impact severity, and extended test durations help validate the wheel's performance in real-world high-stress conditions.
