Apex VS-5RS 18x11 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET7 / 67.1mm CB - Anthracite (Chevy) VS5RS1811ET7-5120-671-AN
The Apex VS-5RS is engineered for drivers who demand uncompromising performance from every component on their vehicle. As the lightest wheel in Apex's Sprint Line forged wheel lineup, the VS-5RS delivers faster acceleration, improved braking, sharper steering response, and reduced unsprung weight. Finished in a premium Anthracite finish, this wheel combines race-inspired styling with the strength and durability required for serious street and track use.
Built from a proprietary 6061-T6 forged aluminum blank formed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the VS-5RS achieves exceptional material density and strength. Unlike generic forgings used elsewhere, Apex developed its own motorsport-specific forging blanks to maximize brake clearance, spoke geometry, concavity, and overall structural performance. The result is a forged wheel designed to withstand demanding conditions while remaining exceptionally lightweight.
