Apex VS-5 18x11 Flow Formed Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET44 / 72.56mm CB - Race Silver (VS51811ET44-5120-7256-RS)
The Apex VS-5 raises the bar for flow-formed wheel performance, delivering many of the benefits traditionally reserved for forged wheels at a more attainable price point. Weighing only approximately 2 to 2.5 pounds more than its forged sibling, the VS-5 sits at the pinnacle of Apex's Evolution Line. Finished in Race Silver, this iconic five-spoke design blends aggressive styling with lightweight strength that performs equally well on the street or the track.
Advanced flow-forming technology enhances the barrel's grain structure and mechanical properties, resulting in increased strength and stiffness without unnecessary mass. Precision side-milled spokes, a reinforced inner lip, and extensive Finite Element Analysis ensure the VS-5 is optimized for durability and performance. Combined with exceptional brake clearance and compatibility with OEM hardware, the VS-5 is built for enthusiasts who refuse to compromise.
