Apex VS-5RS 17x9 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET42 / 72.56mm CB - Brushed Clear (BMW) - VS5RS179ET42-5120-7256-BC
The Apex VS-5RS represents the ultimate expression of lightweight performance. As the lightest wheel in the Apex lineup, this Sprint Line forged wheel combines race-proven strength with exceptional weight savings to give BMW enthusiasts sharper turn-in, improved responsiveness, and the confidence to push harder on the street or track. Finished in Brushed Clear, it delivers premium style backed by uncompromising engineering.
Each VS-5RS starts with a proprietary 6061-T6 aluminum forging compressed under 10,000 metric tons of pressure. Deep side-milled spokes, FEA-optimized construction, and the reinforced Sprint spec inner lip provide incredible strength without unnecessary mass. Independent testing beyond JWL standards, paintless knurled beads, and massive brake clearance make the VS-5RS a serious performance upgrade for demanding drivers.
