Apex VS-5RS 18x10 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET36 / 71.6mm CB - Anthracite (Porsche) (VS5RS1810ET36-5130-716-AN)
The Apex VS-5RS is the lightest wheel Apex has ever engineered, combining cutting-edge forged construction with race-proven durability and exceptional performance. Finished in Anthracite and designed specifically for Porsche applications, this 18x10 wheel is part of Apex's Sprint Line and delivers the ideal balance of low weight, high strength, and precise fitment. Whether you're carving through canyon roads, chasing lap times at the track, or building the ultimate dual-purpose Porsche, the VS-5RS is engineered to elevate every aspect of vehicle performance.
Manufactured from forged 6061-T6 aluminum using an advanced 10,000-ton forging process, the VS-5RS utilizes Apex's proprietary motorsport blank technology to optimize strength, brake clearance, and concavity. Deep side-milled spokes remove unnecessary material while maintaining structural integrity, and a reinforced Sprint spec inner lip helps improve durability against harsh track conditions. Extensive Finite Element Analysis optimization, independent testing beyond JWL standards, and paintless knurled bead seats further enhance confidence for drivers who demand the most from their equipment.
