Apex VS-5 17x9 Flow Formed Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET30 / 72.56mm CB - Hyper Black (BMW) (VS5179ET30-5120-7256-NHBK)
The Apex VS-5 pushes flow formed wheel technology to the edge with a strength-to-weight ratio that rivals many forged designs. Finished in stunning Hyper Black, this 17x9 wheel delivers the perfect combination of aggressive styling, lightweight performance, and race-inspired engineering. Weighing only about 2 to 2.5 pounds more than its forged counterpart, the VS-5 represents the final step before stepping into a fully forged wheel.
Designed for drivers who demand uncompromising performance, the VS-5 utilizes advanced flow forming technology, side-milled spokes, and extensive Finite Element Analysis to maximize strength while minimizing unnecessary weight. Massive brake clearance, reinforced inner lip construction, and ultra-concave face profiles make this wheel equally at home attacking apexes on track or carving back roads.
