Apex VS-5RE 18x11 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET25 / 72.56mm CB - Satin Black (BMW) - VS5RE1811ET25-5120-7256-NSBK
If your BMW sees serious track time, the Apex VS-5RE was built specifically for that kind of abuse. As the Enduro version of the acclaimed VS-5, the VS-5RE raises the bar for strength and durability while maintaining the lightweight characteristics demanded by competitive drivers. Designed to thrive under high grip, heavy braking, and repeated heat cycles, this wheel delivers confidence lap after lap.
Manufactured from fully forged 6061-T6 aluminum using a massive 10,000-ton press, the VS-5RE features a reinforced Enduro-spec lip, stiffer side-milled spokes, and a 2,100-pound load rating. Extensive FEA optimization and independent testing ensure exceptional strength without excessive weight, while massive brake clearance and a deep concave profile make it ideal for serious performance applications.
