Apex SM-10RS 19x10.5 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET45 / 72.56mm CB - Satin Black (SM10RS19105ET45-5120-7256-NSBK)
If you're looking for a forged wheel that delivers uncompromising strength, reduced weight, and race-proven engineering, the Apex SM-10RS is built to exceed expectations. As a flagship model in Apex's Sprint Line, the SM-10RS utilizes advanced forging technology and extensive Finite Element Analysis to create a wheel that is exceptionally lightweight while maintaining the durability required for aggressive street driving and track use. Finished in Satin Black, this 19x10.5 wheel offers a purposeful motorsport appearance that complements any high-performance build.
Unlike conventional forged wheels that rely on generic blanks, Apex developed proprietary motorsport-specific forgings to maximize brake clearance, concavity, and structural performance. Each forging begins as a massive 6061-T6 aluminum blank weighing up to 120 pounds and is formed under 10,000 metric tons of pressure. This process improves grain structure, eliminates porosity, and creates an incredibly strong foundation before extensive CNC machining removes every unnecessary ounce.

The signature I-Beam spoke architecture uses extensive side milling on both sides of every spoke, reducing unnecessary material while maintaining exceptional rigidity. The result is a wheel that is nearly 10% stiffer than the Apex VS-5RS and approximately 25% stiffer than Apex's first generation forged wheels. Combined with the reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip, the SM-10RS delivers impressive impact resistance and load capacity without sacrificing weight savings.
Additional performance-focused details include paintless knurled bead seats to reduce tire slippage under hard acceleration and braking, massive brake clearance for aftermarket big brake kits, impact socket-friendly lug pockets, laser-engraved barrel specifications, and full compatibility with OEM and aftermarket TPMS sensors.
