Apex VS-5RS 18x10.5 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET44 / 71.6mm CB - Satin Bronze (Porsche) (VS5RS18105ET44-5130-716-NSBZ)
The Apex VS-5RS is the lightest wheel in the Apex lineup, engineered for enthusiasts who demand uncompromising performance without sacrificing durability. Part of the Sprint forged wheel series, this 18x10.5 wheel features a stunning Satin Bronze finish and delivers the strength, brake clearance, and lightweight design required for serious street and track use. Built specifically for Porsche applications, the VS-5RS combines race-inspired engineering with a refined appearance that looks as good standing still as it does at speed.
Each VS-5RS begins as a massive 6061-T6 aluminum forging compressed under 10,000 metric tons of pressure. Advanced CNC machining removes excess material while preserving critical strength in high-stress areas. Deep side-milled spokes, a reinforced Sprint spec inner lip, paintless knurled bead seats, and independent testing beyond JWL standards make this one of the most capable lightweight forged wheels available.
