Apex VS-5 18x9.5 Flow Formed Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET58 / 72.56mm CB - Anthracite (BMW) (VS51895ET58-5120-7256-AN)
The Apex VS-5 pushes the limits of flow-formed wheel technology, delivering an impressive strength-to-weight ratio and engineering features typically reserved for fully forged wheels. Weighing only approximately 2 to 2.5 pounds more than its forged counterpart, the VS-5 represents the ultimate step in performance before moving into Apex's forged lineup. Finished in Anthracite, this 18x9.5 wheel combines aggressive styling with serious track-ready capability.
Apex's advanced flow-forming process enhances the grain structure and mechanical properties of the barrel, creating a wheel that is exceptionally strong and lightweight. Combined with side-milled spokes, reinforced inner lip construction, optimized concavity, and extensive FEA testing, the VS-5 delivers outstanding durability and performance for demanding enthusiasts. Massive brake clearance, OEM hardware compatibility, and hub-centric design make it equally suited for street and track use.
