Apex VS-5RS 18x10 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET36 / 71.6mm CB - Satin Black (Porsche) (VS5RS1810ET36-5130-716-NSBK)
The Apex VS-5RS is the lightest wheel Apex has ever engineered, delivering a remarkable blend of lightweight performance, forged strength, and race-ready durability. Finished in Satin Black and designed specifically for Porsche applications, this 18x10 wheel is part of Apex's Sprint Line and was developed for drivers who demand every possible performance advantage. From weekend canyon runs to competitive track events, the VS-5RS provides the responsiveness, brake clearance, and confidence serious enthusiasts expect from a premium forged wheel.
Constructed from forged 6061-T6 aluminum using an advanced 10,000-ton forging process, the VS-5RS utilizes Apex's proprietary motorsport blank technology to maximize strength while minimizing unnecessary weight. Deep side-milled spokes remove excess material without compromising structural integrity, while a reinforced Sprint spec inner lip helps improve impact resistance and durability. Extensive Finite Element Analysis optimization, independent testing beyond JWL standards, and paintless knurled bead seats further establish the VS-5RS as a true motorsport-focused wheel engineered to perform under demanding conditions.
