The Apex VS-5RS is the lightest wheel Apex has ever produced, delivering uncompromising performance for BMW enthusiasts who demand the best. As part of the Sprint Line, this 17x9 forged wheel combines exceptional strength, low weight, and race-proven engineering to provide quicker steering response, improved handling, and the confidence to push harder on both the street and track. Finished in Satin Black, it offers timeless motorsport-inspired styling with serious capability.
Manufactured from proprietary 6061-T6 aluminum forgings compressed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the VS-5RS is optimized using extensive FEA analysis and features deep side-milled spokes for maximum weight savings. A reinforced Sprint spec inner lip, massive brake clearance, paintless knurled bead seats, and independent testing beyond JWL standards ensure this wheel performs at the highest level under demanding conditions.
