Apex VS-5 18x9.5 Flow Formed Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET35 / 72.56mm CB - Satin Black (BMW) (VS51895ET35-5120-7256-SMBK)
The Apex VS-5 pushes the limits of what a flow-formed wheel can achieve. Delivering a remarkable strength-to-weight ratio and engineering features typically found only on forged wheels, the VS-5 offers serious track capability with street-friendly value. Weighing only about 2 to 2.5 pounds more than its forged sibling, this wheel represents the final step before moving into a fully forged design. Finished in Satin Black, the iconic five-spoke layout provides an aggressive appearance backed by real motorsport performance.
Using advanced flow-forming technology, Apex improves the grain structure and mechanical properties of the barrel to create a wheel that is lighter, stronger, and stiffer. Extensive FEA optimization, side-milled spokes, a reinforced inner lip, and deep concave profiles all contribute to a wheel engineered to withstand demanding track use while maintaining exceptional brake clearance and compatibility with factory hardware and TPMS sensors.
