Apex SM-10RS 19x11 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET48 / 71.6mm CB - Brushed Clear (SM10RS1911ET48-5130-716-BC)
The Apex SM-10RS is engineered for drivers who demand the highest levels of performance from every component on their vehicle. Developed as part of Apex's Sprint Line, the SM-10RS combines cutting-edge forging technology, advanced engineering analysis, and motorsport-focused durability into a wheel that delivers exceptional strength, impressive stiffness, and outstanding brake clearance while maintaining an incredibly lightweight design.
Each SM-10RS starts as a forged 6061-T6 aluminum blank weighing up to 120 pounds before extensive CNC machining transforms it into a highly optimized performance wheel. Formed under an immense 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the forging process improves grain structure and eliminates porosity, creating a stronger foundation. Apex then utilizes advanced Finite Element Analysis to remove unnecessary material while reinforcing critical load-bearing areas, resulting in a wheel built to thrive under demanding street and track conditions.

10K Ton Forged Manufacturing
The SM-10RS begins with a forged 6061-T6 aluminum blank formed under 10,000 metric tons of pressure. This advanced process improves grain structure, increases material density, and minimizes porosity to create an exceptionally strong wheel capable of handling demanding performance environments.
I-Beam Spoke Technology
Precision CNC side milling removes excess material from both sides of each spoke, creating an advanced I-beam profile that reduces weight without compromising structural integrity. This technology allows the SM-10RS to achieve an impressive balance of strength, rigidity, and low mass.
Optimized for Strength and Stiffness
Extensive Finite Element Analysis was utilized to identify high-stress areas and optimize material placement throughout the wheel. Combined with the reinforced Sprint spec inner lip, the result is a wheel that delivers outstanding durability, improved responsiveness, and exceptional impact resistance.
Track-Ready Performance
From paintless knurled bead seats that help maintain tire grip under extreme loads to oversized socket clearance for rapid wheel changes, every detail of the SM-10RS was designed with serious enthusiasts and racers in mind.
Fitment
- Applications Utilizing 5x130 Bolt Pattern and 71.6mm Center Bore
- Verify Brake Clearance, Suspension Clearance, Fender Clearance, and Tire Fitment Prior to Installation
FAQs
Why are paintless knurled bead seats beneficial?
Paintless knurled bead seats maintain maximum grip between the tire and wheel, helping reduce tire slippage that can occur during repeated hard acceleration, braking, and track use.
Can I use factory TPMS sensors with the SM-10RS?
Yes. The SM-10RS is designed to accept OEM and aftermarket TPMS sensors and utilizes standard valve stems for straightforward installation.
