Apex VS-5RS 18x9.5 Forged Wheel - 5x100 BP / ET40 / 56.1mm CB - Motorsport Gold (Toyota 86 / Subaru BRZ) (VS5RS1895ET40-5100-561-MGD)
Take your Toyota 86 or Subaru BRZ to the next level with the Apex VS-5RS 18x9.5 Forged Wheel in Motorsport Gold. Designed as part of Apex's ultra-lightweight Sprint Line, the VS-5RS delivers the ideal combination of reduced unsprung weight, race-ready durability, and exceptional brake clearance. Whether you're chasing faster lap times or enhancing your street car's responsiveness, this forged wheel is engineered to perform under the most demanding conditions.
Every VS-5RS starts as a proprietary 6061-T6 forged aluminum blank formed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure before undergoing extensive CNC machining. Apex removes every unnecessary ounce of material while reinforcing critical stress points using advanced Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The result is a lightweight forged wheel with deep side-milled spokes, a reinforced Sprint spec inner lip, and independently verified strength that exceeds standard JWL testing requirements.
