Take your Tesla's performance to the next level with the Apex VS-5RS 18x9.5 Forged Wheel in Anthracite. Engineered as the lightest wheel in Apex's Sprint Line, the VS-5RS delivers exceptional strength, reduced rotational mass, and outstanding brake clearance for drivers who demand maximum performance on the street, autocross, or road course. The modern Anthracite finish perfectly complements Tesla styling while providing a subtle motorsport-inspired appearance.
Manufactured from premium 6061-T6 forged aluminum using an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure, the VS-5RS is built around Apex's exclusive motorsport-specific forged blanks. Deep CNC side-milled spokes eliminate unnecessary material while maintaining exceptional rigidity, and the reinforced Sprint spec inner lip increases impact resistance without sacrificing weight.
