Apex VS-5 18x9.5 Flow Formed Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET35 / 72.56mm CB - Anthracite (BMW) - VS51895ET35-5120-7256-AN
The Apex VS-5 continues to redefine what enthusiasts should expect from a flow-formed wheel. Finished in striking Anthracite, this 18x9.5 wheel combines forged-inspired engineering with exceptional strength, low weight, and aggressive styling. Weighing only approximately 2 to 2.5 pounds more than its forged counterpart, the VS-5 delivers performance that places it at the top of the flow-formed segment and makes it the perfect stepping stone before moving to a fully forged wheel.
Apex's advanced flow-forming process improves the barrel's grain structure and rigidity, allowing engineers to remove excess material while maintaining impressive strength. Side-milled spokes, a reinforced inner lip, massive brake clearance, and extensive FEA optimization result in a wheel that excels on the street and track alike. Combined with hub-centric fitment and compatibility with OEM hardware and TPMS sensors, the VS-5 offers uncompromising performance with everyday practicality.
