Apex SM-10RS 19x11 Forged Wheel - 5x114.3 BP / ET52 / 70.5mm CB - Satin Black (SM10RS1911ET52-51143-705-NSBK)
The Apex SM-10RS is engineered for enthusiasts who demand elite-level performance without compromise. Developed as part of Apex's Sprint Line, this fully forged wheel combines advanced manufacturing, extensive engineering analysis, and motorsport-proven design features to deliver exceptional strength, stiffness, and durability while maintaining an impressively low weight. Whether you're building a dedicated track machine or upgrading a high-performance street car, the SM-10RS is designed to perform under the most demanding conditions.
Each SM-10RS begins as a premium 6061-T6 aluminum forging weighing up to 120 pounds before precision CNC machining. Formed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the forging process enhances grain structure, increases material density, and reduces porosity for maximum strength. Apex then applies extensive Finite Element Analysis to strategically remove material where it isn't needed while reinforcing critical load-bearing areas, creating a wheel that is lightweight, exceptionally strong, and remarkably stiff.

Forged Under Extreme Pressure
The SM-10RS starts with a purpose-built forging subjected to 10,000 metric tons of pressure. This advanced manufacturing process creates a stronger and denser wheel structure by improving aluminum grain alignment and minimizing material imperfections.
Advanced I-Beam Spoke Design
Each spoke utilizes Apex's signature I-beam design, created through extensive side milling on both sides of the spoke. This machining process removes excess material without sacrificing structural integrity, resulting in a wheel that is lightweight yet exceptionally strong.
Engineered for Greater Stiffness
Using detailed Finite Element Analysis of bending loads, Apex optimized spoke geometry to maximize stiffness without adding weight. The result is a wheel that delivers sharper handling response, improved feedback, and increased resistance to flex under demanding driving conditions.
Built for Serious Performance
From the reinforced Sprint spec inner lip and paintless knurled bead seats to oversized socket clearance and massive brake clearance, every aspect of the SM-10RS was engineered with performance enthusiasts in mind. Independent testing beyond JWL standards further validates its durability and capability.
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 benefits does the I-beam spoke design provide?
