Apex VS-5 19x9 Flow Formed Wheel - 5x112 BP / ET42 / 57.1mm CB - Anthracite (Audi Big Bore) (VS5199ET42-5112-571-AN)
The Apex VS-5 pushes the limits of flow formed wheel engineering with a strength-to-weight ratio typically reserved for forged designs. Weighing only approximately 2 to 2.5 pounds more than its forged sibling, the VS-5 stands among the most advanced flow formed wheels available. Finished in Anthracite, this wheel combines race-inspired styling with the durability and lightweight performance enthusiasts demand.
Utilizing advanced flow-forming technology, the VS-5 features improved barrel grain structure and increased stiffness while minimizing unnecessary mass. Side-milled spokes, a reinforced inner lip, ultra-concave face profiles, and exceptional brake clearance help deliver track-capable performance with everyday usability. Extensive Finite Element Analysis and Apex's expansive brake scan library ensure uncompromising strength and durability.
