Apex VS-5RS 18x11 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET7 / 67.1mm CB - Satin Black (Chevy) VS5RS1811ET7-5120-671-NSBK
The Apex VS-5RS is built for drivers who demand maximum performance from every component on their vehicle. As the lightest wheel in Apex's Sprint Line forged wheel family, the VS-5RS delivers reduced rotational mass, improved acceleration, sharper steering response, and enhanced braking performance. Finished in an aggressive Satin Black finish, this wheel combines race-inspired styling with the strength and durability needed for both street and track applications.
Manufactured from a proprietary 6061-T6 forged aluminum blank formed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the VS-5RS achieves exceptional strength through optimized grain structure and material density. 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 engineered to withstand demanding use while remaining exceptionally lightweight.
