Apex VS-5 18x9 Flow Formed Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET30 / 72.56mm CB - Anthracite (BMW) (VS5189ET30-5120-7256-AN)
Engineered to blur the line between flow-formed and forged performance, the Apex VS-5 delivers exceptional strength, low weight, and race-inspired styling. Weighing only approximately 2 to 2.5 pounds more than its forged counterpart, the VS-5 offers enthusiasts a serious performance wheel without the premium price of full forging. Finished in Anthracite, its iconic 5-spoke design and aggressive concavity provide a purposeful appearance backed by true motorsport engineering.
Using advanced flow-forming technology, the VS-5 features a stronger barrel with improved grain structure and stiffness while reducing unnecessary mass. Side-milled spokes, a reinforced inner lip, optimized spoke geometry, and extensive FEA analysis create a wheel capable of handling both street and track abuse. Massive brake clearance, hub-centric fitment, and compatibility with factory hardware and TPMS sensors make the VS-5 a versatile upgrade for BMW enthusiasts.
