Apex VS-5RS 19x8.5 Forged Wheel - 5x114.3 BP / ET23 / 64.1mm CB - Satin Black (Tesla) (VS5RS1985ET23-51143-641-NSBK)
The Apex VS-5RS 19x8.5 Forged Wheel is engineered for Tesla enthusiasts seeking the ultimate combination of lightweight performance, exceptional strength, and race-proven durability. As the lightest wheel in the Apex Sprint Line, the VS-5RS reduces unsprung weight to improve acceleration, braking, steering response, and overall vehicle dynamics while maintaining the structural integrity needed for demanding street and track use. The timeless Satin Black finish delivers an aggressive motorsport-inspired appearance that perfectly complements any Tesla build.
Manufactured from proprietary 6061-T6 forged aluminum using an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure, each VS-5RS is CNC machined with deep side-milled spokes that eliminate unnecessary weight while reinforcing critical stress areas. The result is an exceptionally strong forged wheel featuring Apex's reinforced Sprint spec inner lip, optimized brake clearance, paintless knurled bead seats, independently validated strength testing, and laser-engraved barrel specifications for long-term durability and convenience.
