Apex VS-5RS 18x9.5 Forged Wheel - 5x120 BP / ET28 / 72.56mm CB - Satin Black (BMW) (VS5RS1895ET28-5120-7256-SMBK)
The Apex VS-5RS 18x9.5 Forged Wheel is built for BMW drivers who refuse to compromise between lightweight performance and long-term durability. As the lightest wheel in Apex's Sprint Line, the VS-5RS combines advanced forging technology, race-inspired engineering, and exceptional brake clearance into a package that excels on the street, autocross course, or race track. Finished in Satin Black, it delivers a clean, aggressive appearance that complements virtually any BMW performance build.
Forged from premium 6061-T6 aluminum under an immense 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the VS-5RS starts with Apex's proprietary motorsport-specific forged blanks for maximum design freedom and optimized strength. Deep CNC side-milled spokes reduce unnecessary weight while maintaining structural integrity, and the reinforced Sprint spec inner lip provides increased impact resistance over conventional lightweight wheels. Combined with extensive Finite Element Analysis and independent testing beyond JWL standards, the VS-5RS is engineered to deliver confidence under the most demanding driving conditions.
