Apex SM-10RS 19x9.5 Forged Wheel - Satin Black (SM10RS1995ET29-51143-641-NSBK)
The Apex SM-10RS was developed for enthusiasts who refuse to compromise between lightweight performance and long-term durability. As part of Apex's Sprint Line, the SM-10RS utilizes advanced forging technology and race-proven engineering to create a wheel that delivers outstanding strength, exceptional stiffness, and reduced rotational mass. Finished in Satin Black, this 19x9.5 wheel offers aggressive styling backed by serious motorsport capability.
Manufactured from proprietary 10K-ton forged 6061-T6 aluminum blanks, the SM-10RS was designed to maximize brake clearance, steering precision, and structural integrity. Extensive Finite Element Analysis and independent third-party testing beyond standard requirements ensure this wheel delivers the confidence and performance enthusiasts expect whether on the street or at the track.
10K Ton Forged Construction
Every SM-10RS begins as a forged aluminum blank weighing up to 120 pounds before machining. Specialized equipment capable of applying 10,000 metric tons of pressure refines the grain structure and minimizes porosity, producing a stronger foundation that allows Apex engineers to remove unnecessary material while maintaining exceptional strength.
True Motorsport Blanks
Rather than relying on generic third-party forgings, Apex developed proprietary motorsport-specific blanks from the ground up. This gives engineers complete control over wheel dimensions, spoke geometry, brake clearance, and concavity profiles to optimize performance.
I-Beam Spoke Technology
Precision CNC machining removes material from both sides of each spoke to create an I-beam profile. This side-milled design reduces weight while preserving strength in critical load-bearing areas, improving responsiveness and minimizing rotational inertia.
A Stronger Lightweight Wheel
The SM-10RS was engineered to remain lightweight without sacrificing durability. After removing unnecessary material, Apex strategically reinforced critical areas to create a stronger inner lip and increased load capacity while preserving excellent weight characteristics.
Advanced FEA Optimization
Extensive Finite Element Analysis allowed Apex engineers to identify stress concentrations and optimize material placement. High-load areas received reinforcement while material was removed from low-stress zones, creating exceptional strength-to-weight ratios.
Greater Stiffness
Optimized spoke geometry and advanced bending-load analysis helped create a wheel nearly 10 percent stiffer than the VS-5RS while maintaining nearly identical weight. Compared to Apex's first-generation forged wheels, stiffness improvements approach 25 percent.
Independent Third-Party Testing
Testing performed by STL in Ohio exceeds traditional JWL standards with increased impact heights, higher loads, and longer test durations. This independent validation provides confidence under demanding driving conditions.
Sprint Spec Reinforced Inner Lip
Apex's reinforced Sprint spec inner lip utilizes a unique channel profile engineered for improved impact resistance. Despite weighing less than many comparable wheels, the SM-10RS delivers exceptional durability against potholes and harsh track environments.
Massive Brake Clearance
A high-clearance barrel profile combined with application-specific spoke geometry developed using advanced laser scanning allows compatibility with many factory and aftermarket brake systems.
Deep Concavity
Redesigned forging architecture allows for aggressive concave profiles without sacrificing brake clearance or strength, creating a bold appearance with uncompromised functionality.
Paintless Knurled Bead Seats
Unpainted knurled bead seats help maximize tire retention under hard acceleration and braking, reducing the potential for tire slippage and vibration.
Track-Ready Details
The SM-10RS accommodates oversized race lugs and impact sockets for fast wheel changes. Laser-engraved specifications remain visible and easy to identify throughout the life of the wheel.
Hub-Centric and TPMS Compatible
SM-10RS wheels are engineered to be hub-centric whenever possible and accept OEM and aftermarket Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors along with standard valve stems.
