Apex VS-5RE 19x11 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET44 / 72.56mm CB - Race Silver (BMW) (VS5RE1911ET44-5120-7256-RS)
The Apex VS-5RE was engineered for drivers who demand uncompromising durability and repeatable performance under extreme conditions. As the Enduro version of the acclaimed VS-5 design, the VS-5RE delivers Apex's highest load rating and strongest lip construction, making it an ideal choice for track-focused BMW builds utilizing sticky tires, high aerodynamic loads, and aggressive driving styles. Whether you're competing in endurance events or pushing hard during track days, these wheels are designed to withstand abuse lap after lap.
Manufactured from fully forged 6061-T6 aluminum using a massive 10,000-ton forging process, the VS-5RE combines incredible strength with intelligent weight reduction. Redesigned side-milled spokes provide approximately 25 percent more stiffness, while extensive FEA optimization removes unnecessary material without compromising durability. Massive brake clearance, paintless knurled bead seats, and independently verified testing beyond JWL standards make the VS-5RE one of the most capable motorsport wheels Apex has ever produced.
