Apex VS-5RE 19x9 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET48 / 71.6mm CB - Satin Black (Porsche) VS5RE199ET48-5130-716-NSBK
The Apex VS-5RE was engineered to redefine durability for serious enthusiasts and racers who demand maximum strength without sacrificing performance. As the Enduro version of the popular VS-5 design, this 19x9 forged wheel is built to handle the tremendous loads generated by sticky tires, aerodynamic downforce, and repeated track sessions. Finished in Satin Black, the VS-5RE delivers aggressive motorsport styling backed by race-proven engineering for Porsche applications.
Manufactured from fully forged 6061-T6 aluminum using an immense 10,000-ton forging process, the VS-5RE is approximately 30 percent stronger than the RS version. Reinforced Enduro-spec lips, stiffer side-milled spokes, and extensive FEA optimization combine to create one of the strongest wheels Apex has ever produced. With a massive 2,100-pound load rating and exceptional brake clearance, the VS-5RE is built to thrive in demanding environments.

FAQs
What makes the VS-5RE different from the VS-5RS?
The VS-5RE features reinforced Enduro-spec lips, increased spoke stiffness, and a higher load rating designed to withstand the demands of endurance racing and aggressive track use.
Will these wheels clear large brake kits?
Yes. Apex engineered the VS-5RE with optimized spoke geometry and a high-clearance barrel profile to accommodate many factory and aftermarket brake systems.
Why are the bead seats left unpainted?
The paintless knurled bead design helps prevent tire slippage during heavy braking and acceleration, improving consistency and maintaining wheel balance.
