Apex VS-5RS 18x10 Forged Wheel - 5x130 BP / ET36 / 71.6mm CB - Race Silver (Porsche) (VS5RS1810ET36-5130-716-RS)
The Apex VS-5RS is the lightest wheel Apex has ever engineered, combining ultra-lightweight performance, forged strength, and race-proven durability into one uncompromising package. Finished in Race Silver and designed specifically for Porsche applications, this 18x10 wheel is part of Apex's Sprint Line and was developed for drivers who demand maximum performance from every component on their vehicle. With exceptional brake clearance, optimized spoke geometry, and a lightweight design focused on reducing rotational mass, the VS-5RS delivers the responsiveness serious enthusiasts expect on both the street and the track.
Manufactured from forged 6061-T6 aluminum using an immense 10,000-ton forging process, the VS-5RS utilizes Apex's proprietary motorsport blank technology to maximize strength, concavity, and brake clearance. Deep side-milled spokes remove unnecessary material while preserving structural integrity, while a reinforced Sprint spec inner lip increases durability in critical impact zones. Extensive Finite Element Analysis optimization, independent testing beyond JWL standards, and paintless knurled bead seats help ensure the VS-5RS performs under the most demanding driving conditions.
