Apex VS-5 18x10.5 Flow Formed Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET22 / 72.56mm CB - Hyper Black (VS518105ET22-5120-7256-NHBK)
The Apex VS-5 pushes flow-formed wheel technology to its limits, delivering the lightweight performance and durability enthusiasts demand without stepping up to a fully forged wheel. Weighing only approximately 2 to 2.5 pounds more than its forged counterpart, the VS-5 offers an impressive balance of strength, stiffness, and weight savings. Finished in an eye-catching Hyper Black finish, this iconic 5-spoke design provides a motorsport-inspired look backed by serious engineering.
Part of the Apex Evolution Line, the VS-5 utilizes advanced flow-forming processes that enhance barrel strength and stiffness while reducing unnecessary mass. Extensive Finite Element Analysis, side-milled spokes, reinforced inner lips, and ultra-concave face profiles combine to create a wheel capable of handling demanding street and track use. Massive brake clearance and compatibility with OEM hardware make the VS-5 a versatile choice for performance-focused builds.
