Apex VS-5 17x9.5 Flow Formed Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET35 / 72.56mm CB - Race Silver (BMW) (VS51795ET35-5120-7256-RS)
The Apex VS-5 represents the pinnacle of flow-formed wheel engineering, delivering forged-wheel-inspired performance in a lightweight, race-ready package. Finished in striking Race Silver, this 17x9.5 wheel combines an iconic five-spoke design with advanced manufacturing techniques to provide exceptional strength, low weight, and outstanding brake clearance. Weighing only about 2 to 2.5 pounds more than its forged counterpart, the VS-5 is the ultimate performance step before moving to a fully forged wheel.
Extensive Finite Element Analysis and innovative engineering allow the VS-5 to maximize stiffness and durability while removing unnecessary material. Side-milled spokes, ultra-concave face profiles, and a reinforced inner lip make this wheel equally at home attacking apexes on track or carving corners on the street.
