Apex SM-10RS 19x11 Forged Wheel - 5x114.3 BP / ET26 / 70.5mm CB - Anthracite (SM10RS1911ET26-51143-705-AN)
The Apex SM-10RS is engineered for drivers who demand every possible performance advantage from their wheel package. As a member of Apex's Sprint Line forged wheel family, the SM-10RS combines advanced engineering, race-proven durability, and aggressive styling into a lightweight forged wheel built to excel on both the street and track. The result is a wheel that delivers exceptional strength, stiffness, brake clearance, and impact resistance without carrying unnecessary weight.
Manufactured from forged 6061-T6 aluminum using a massive 10,000 metric ton forging process, the SM-10RS begins as a forging weighing up to 120 pounds before extensive CNC machining transforms it into a lightweight performance wheel. Through advanced Finite Element Analysis and countless engineering refinements, Apex removed material where it was unnecessary and reinforced high-stress areas to create one of the most capable forged wheels in its lineup.

10K Ton Forged Performance
Every SM-10RS begins life as an exceptionally dense forged blank formed under 10,000 metric tons of pressure. This process improves material integrity, eliminates porosity, and enhances grain structure to create a wheel that is significantly stronger than conventional cast alternatives.
I-Beam Spoke Technology
Apex machines both sides of each spoke using precision CNC equipment to create an advanced I-beam profile. This design removes excess material that does not contribute to strength, resulting in a lighter wheel without sacrificing rigidity or durability.
Stronger Sprint Spec Inner Lip
Rather than pursuing weight reduction at all costs, Apex strategically reinforced critical areas of the wheel. The Sprint spec inner lip features a unique channel profile engineered to increase impact resistance and improve durability while maintaining a lightweight overall design.
Track-Tested Confidence
The SM-10RS is independently validated through testing conducted by STL, an Ohio-based testing facility. Apex subjects its Sprint wheels to testing procedures that exceed standard JWL requirements through higher loads, greater impact forces, and longer testing durations.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing 5x114.3 Bolt Pattern and 70.5mm Center Bore
- Verify Brake Clearance, Suspension Clearance, Fender Clearance, and Tire Fitment Prior to Installation
FAQs
What makes the SM-10RS different from a typical lightweight wheel?
The SM-10RS combines low weight with reinforced high-stress areas, a stronger inner lip, extensive FEA optimization, and independent testing to deliver lightweight performance without compromising durability.
Can this wheel be used with TPMS sensors?
Yes. The SM-10RS accepts OEM and aftermarket TPMS sensors and utilizes standard valve stems for straightforward installation.
