Apex VS-5RS 19x9 Forged Wheel - 5x114.3 BP / ET34 / 70.5mm CB - Anthracite (Ford) - VS5RS199ET34-51143-705-AN
The Apex VS-5RS is the lightest wheel in the Apex Sprint Line, engineered for Ford performance enthusiasts who demand maximum performance without sacrificing durability. This fully forged 19x9 wheel reduces unsprung weight to sharpen steering response, improve acceleration, and enhance braking performance while maintaining the strength required for aggressive street driving and repeated track use. Finished in Anthracite, it delivers a clean, motorsport-inspired appearance that looks right at home on today's high-performance Ford platforms.
Each VS-5RS starts as a proprietary motorsport-specific 6061-T6 forged aluminum blank formed under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure. Apex then utilizes advanced CNC machining to create deep side-milled spokes that eliminate unnecessary material while reinforcing high-load areas with its Sprint spec inner lip. Combined with exceptional brake clearance, paintless knurled bead seats, laser-engraved specifications, hub-centric engineering, and independent testing beyond JWL standards, the VS-5RS is built to perform under the toughest driving conditions.
