Apex VS-5RS 20x11.5 Forged Wheel - 5x114.3 BP / ET48 / 70.5mm CB - Brushed Clear (VS5RS20115ET48-51143-705-BC)
The Apex VS-5RS 20x11.5 forged wheel was engineered for drivers who demand maximum performance without compromising durability. As part of Apex's Sprint Line, the VS-5RS delivers an exceptional combination of lightweight construction, race-proven strength, and optimized brake clearance for serious street and track use. Finished in a stunning Brushed Clear finish, this wheel offers a premium motorsport-inspired appearance while delivering the strength and precision expected from a true forged wheel for Ford performance applications.
Each VS-5RS starts as a proprietary 6061-T6 forged aluminum blank produced under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure. Apex then uses advanced CNC machining and extensive Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to strategically remove unnecessary material while reinforcing high-load areas. Deep side-milled spokes, the reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip, paintless knurled bead seats, and a vehicle-specific barrel design all work together to provide exceptional strength, reduced rotational mass, and outstanding brake clearance.

FAQs
Why are the spokes side milled?
Side milling removes excess material that does not contribute to structural strength, helping reduce rotational weight while maintaining the durability required for high-performance driving.
Can factory TPMS sensors be reused?
Yes. The VS-5RS accepts both OEM and aftermarket TPMS sensors and uses standard valve stems for an easy installation.
