Apex VS-5RE 18x10 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET25 / 72.56mm CB - Satin Black (BMW) (VS5RE1810ET25-5120-7256-NSBK)
The Apex VS-5RE represents the pinnacle of durability in the Apex lineup. As the Enduro version of the acclaimed VS-5 design, this fully forged wheel is engineered to withstand the immense loads generated by sticky tires, aerodynamic downforce, and countless hard laps. Finished in Satin Black, the VS-5RE delivers the strength and reliability serious BMW enthusiasts and racers demand without sacrificing performance.
Forged from premium 6061-T6 aluminum under an incredible 10,000 tons of pressure, the VS-5RE delivers approximately 30 percent more strength than the Sprint Line RS version while featuring spokes that are roughly 25 percent stiffer. Extensive FEA optimization, reinforced lips, and independent third-party testing combine to create one of the strongest and most capable motorsport wheels Apex has ever produced.
