Apex VS-5RS 20x11.5 Forged Wheel - 5x114.3 BP / ET48 / 70.5mm CB - Race Silver (VS5RS20115ET48-51143-705-RS)
The Apex VS-5RS 20x11.5 forged wheel is engineered for enthusiasts who demand lightweight performance without sacrificing strength. As part of Apex's Sprint Line, the VS-5RS combines cutting-edge forged construction with race-proven engineering to deliver exceptional durability, reduced rotational mass, and outstanding brake clearance. Finished in a clean Race Silver finish, this wheel offers timeless motorsport styling while providing the performance needed for serious Ford street and track builds.
Every VS-5RS begins as a proprietary 6061-T6 forged aluminum blank produced under an incredible 10,000 metric tons of pressure. Apex then utilizes advanced CNC machining and extensive Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to strategically remove unnecessary material while reinforcing critical stress points. Deep side-milled spokes, a reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip, paintless knurled bead seats, and a high-clearance barrel design all contribute to a forged wheel that delivers exceptional strength, reduced weight, and confidence under demanding driving conditions.
