Apex SM-10RS 19x11 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET44 / 72.56mm CB - Brushed Clear (SM10RS1911ET44-5120-7256-BC)
The Apex SM-10RS is a fully forged performance wheel developed for drivers who demand the ultimate balance of lightweight construction, exceptional strength, and race-proven durability. As part of Apex's Sprint Line, the SM-10RS utilizes advanced engineering and motorsport-inspired design to deliver outstanding rigidity, massive brake clearance, and long-term reliability without carrying unnecessary weight.
Starting as a forged 6061-T6 aluminum blank weighing up to 120 pounds, each SM-10RS is formed under an immense 10,000 metric tons of pressure before extensive CNC machining transforms it into a highly optimized performance wheel. Apex engineers utilized advanced Finite Element Analysis to strategically remove material where it adds no structural benefit while reinforcing critical load-bearing areas. The result is a wheel that delivers remarkable strength, responsiveness, and durability while remaining exceptionally lightweight.

10K Ton Forged Manufacturing
The SM-10RS begins with a forged blank formed under 10,000 metric tons of pressure. This process improves aluminum grain structure, minimizes porosity, and increases material density, creating an exceptionally strong foundation capable of handling demanding performance environments.
I-Beam Spoke Technology
Precision CNC machining removes excess material from both sides of each spoke to create an advanced I-beam profile. This design reduces weight while maintaining the strength and stiffness necessary for aggressive street driving and track use.
Optimized for Strength and Stiffness
Apex utilized extensive Finite Element Analysis to identify critical stress areas and optimize spoke geometry. Combined with the reinforced Sprint spec inner lip, the result is a wheel that offers exceptional durability, increased rigidity, and impressive impact resistance.
Track-Ready Engineering
Every detail of the SM-10RS was developed with performance enthusiasts in mind. From paintless knurled bead seats that help maintain tire grip to oversized socket clearance for rapid wheel changes, this wheel is designed to excel in demanding driving 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 are the benefits of the paintless knurled bead seats?
Paintless knurled bead seats provide increased grip between the wheel and tire, helping reduce tire slippage that can occur during repeated hard acceleration, braking, and track use.
Does the SM-10RS support OEM TPMS sensors?
Yes. The SM-10RS accepts OEM and aftermarket TPMS sensors and is compatible with standard valve stems.
