Apex VS-5RE 19x11 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET48 / 71.6mm CB - Race Silver (Porsche) (VS5RE1911ET48-5130-716-RS)
The Apex VS-5RE was engineered for drivers who demand maximum strength and durability without compromising performance. As the Enduro version of the popular VS-5 design, the VS-5RE features Apex's highest load rating and strongest lip construction, making it ideal for high-grip tires, increased downforce, and the punishment that comes with serious track use. Designed to thrive under extreme conditions, these wheels are built to keep delivering lap after lap.
Manufactured from fully forged 6061-T6 aluminum using a massive 10,000-ton forging process, the VS-5RE combines exceptional strength with intelligent weight optimization. Redesigned side-milled spokes increase stiffness by approximately 25 percent, while the reinforced Enduro-spec inner lip and front lip provide additional protection against harsh impacts. With massive brake clearance, paintless knurled bead seats, and independent testing beyond JWL standards, the VS-5RE establishes a new benchmark for endurance-ready performance.
