Apex SM-10RS 19x11 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET48 / 71.6mm CB - Satin Bronze (SM10RS1911ET48-5130-716-NSBZ)
The Apex SM-10RS was developed for enthusiasts who demand every possible advantage from their wheel package. As part of Apex's Sprint Line, this fully forged wheel combines cutting-edge engineering, lightweight construction, and exceptional durability to create a wheel capable of thriving under the harshest driving conditions. Whether you're chasing lap times, attacking canyon roads, or building a serious performance machine, the SM-10RS delivers the strength, stiffness, and responsiveness required to perform at the highest level.
Each wheel begins as a forged 6061-T6 aluminum blank weighing up to 120 pounds before undergoing extensive CNC machining. Formed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the forging process improves material density, enhances grain structure, and minimizes porosity. Apex then utilizes advanced Finite Element Analysis to optimize every section of the wheel, removing unnecessary material while reinforcing critical load-bearing areas. The result is an exceptionally lightweight wheel that refuses to compromise on durability or performance.

10K Ton Forged Construction
The SM-10RS utilizes an advanced forging process that subjects premium 6061-T6 aluminum to 10,000 metric tons of pressure. This manufacturing method improves strength, enhances material consistency, and creates an exceptionally durable foundation capable of handling extreme performance use.
I-Beam Spoke Technology
Precision CNC machining removes excess material from both sides of each spoke to create an advanced I-beam profile. This innovative design reduces weight while maintaining the strength and rigidity required for aggressive driving and track-focused applications.
Strength Without Compromise
Rather than simply removing material to save weight, Apex strategically reinforced critical stress points throughout the wheel. Combined with the stronger Sprint spec inner lip, this approach creates a wheel that remains lightweight while offering exceptional impact resistance and long-term durability.
Built for Enthusiasts
From paintless knurled bead seats that help prevent tire movement under heavy loads to oversized socket clearance for fast wheel changes, every detail of the SM-10RS was engineered with serious enthusiasts and racers in mind. Independent testing beyond JWL standards further validates its real-world performance capabilities.
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
How does the SM-10RS achieve its lightweight design without sacrificing durability?
Apex uses extensive Finite Element Analysis to remove material only where it does not contribute to strength while reinforcing critical stress areas. This creates an optimal balance of low weight and exceptional durability.
Does the SM-10RS support factory TPMS systems?
Yes. The SM-10RS accepts both OEM and aftermarket TPMS sensors and works with standard valve stems for straightforward installation.
