Apex SM-10RS 19x11 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET44 / 72.56mm CB - Anthracite (SM10RS1911ET44-5120-7256-AN)
The Apex SM-10RS is a fully forged performance wheel designed for enthusiasts who demand exceptional strength, reduced weight, and uncompromising durability. As a cornerstone of Apex's Sprint Line, the SM-10RS combines advanced engineering, extensive testing, and race-inspired design to create a wheel that performs at the highest levels on both the street and track. Every detail is engineered to maximize stiffness, brake clearance, and reliability without carrying unnecessary weight.
Manufactured from forged 6061-T6 aluminum and formed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the SM-10RS starts as a forging weighing up to 120 pounds before precision CNC machining removes excess material. Through extensive Finite Element Analysis, Apex optimized every section of the wheel, reinforcing critical stress areas while eliminating unnecessary mass. The result is a lightweight forged wheel that delivers outstanding durability, responsiveness, and confidence under demanding driving conditions.

10K Ton Forged Construction
The SM-10RS utilizes a forging process that applies 10,000 metric tons of pressure to premium 6061-T6 aluminum. This process improves grain structure, increases material density, and minimizes porosity to create an exceptionally strong wheel foundation.
I-Beam Spoke Technology
One of the defining characteristics of the SM-10RS is its side-milled spoke design. Precision CNC machining removes unnecessary material from both sides of each spoke to create an advanced I-beam profile that reduces weight while preserving strength and rigidity.
Strength Without Compromise
Apex engineered the Sprint Line to remain lightweight without sacrificing durability. After removing excess material, critical areas were strategically reinforced, including the stronger Sprint spec inner lip, creating a wheel capable of handling demanding driving conditions.
Independently Tested Performance
The SM-10RS is independently tested by STL beyond standard JWL requirements. Increased testing loads, longer test durations, and more demanding impact evaluations help validate the wheel's durability and performance under real-world conditions.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing 5x120 Bolt Pattern and 72.56mm Center Bore
- Verify Brake Clearance, Suspension Clearance, Fender Clearance, and Tire Fitment Prior to Installation
FAQs
What makes the SM-10RS different from traditional lightweight wheels?
