Apex VS-5RS 18x10 Forged Wheel - 5x114.3 BP / ET40 / 70.5mm CB - Satin Bronze (Ford) (VS5RS1810ET40-51143-705-NSBZ)
The Apex VS-5RS is the lightest wheel Apex has ever engineered, delivering an impressive combination of lightweight performance, forged strength, and race-proven durability. Finished in Satin Bronze and engineered specifically for Ford applications, this 18x10 wheel is part of Apex's Sprint Line and was developed for enthusiasts who refuse to compromise between weight savings and structural integrity. Whether you're chasing faster lap times, improving handling response, or building a head-turning street and track machine, the VS-5RS is engineered to elevate performance in every driving environment.
Constructed from forged 6061-T6 aluminum using a massive 10,000-ton forging process, the VS-5RS utilizes Apex's proprietary motorsport blank technology to maximize strength, brake clearance, and concavity. Deep side-milled spokes remove unnecessary material while maintaining rigidity, and a reinforced Sprint spec inner lip provides increased durability in critical impact areas. Extensive Finite Element Analysis optimization, independent testing beyond JWL standards, and paintless knurled bead seats ensure the VS-5RS delivers the confidence and reliability serious enthusiasts demand.
