Apex VS-5RS 18x11 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET44 / 72.56mm CB - Satin Bronze (BMW) VS5RS1811ET44-5120-7256-NSBZ
The Apex VS-5RS was developed for drivers who demand the ultimate combination of lightweight performance, strength, and motorsport-inspired engineering. As the lightest wheel in Apex's Sprint Line forged wheel collection, the VS-5RS helps reduce rotational mass for improved acceleration, sharper steering response, and enhanced braking performance. Finished in a bold Satin Bronze finish, this wheel adds an aggressive, race-inspired appearance while delivering the durability serious BMW enthusiasts expect.
Manufactured from a proprietary 6061-T6 forged aluminum blank formed under an immense 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the VS-5RS achieves exceptional material density and structural integrity. Apex's exclusive motorsport-specific forging blanks allow complete control over brake clearance, spoke geometry, concavity, and overall wheel strength. Combined with deep side-milled spokes, extensive CNC machining, and a reinforced Sprint spec inner lip, the VS-5RS offers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio for both street and track applications.
