Apex VS-5RS 20x12.5 Forged Wheel - Porsche Center Lock / ET48 / 101mm CB - Brushed Clear (Porsche) (VS5RS20125ET48-CL-PS-BC)
The Apex VS-5RS 20x12.5 Forged Wheel is engineered for Porsche models equipped with factory Center Lock hubs, giving serious drivers the strength, precision, and lightweight performance needed for high-powered street and track builds. As part of Apex's Sprint Line, the VS-5RS uses advanced forged construction and aggressive weight optimization to reduce rotational mass while maintaining the durability required for demanding performance use. The Brushed Clear finish highlights the forged wheel design with a clean, premium motorsport look.
Each 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. Deep side-milled spokes remove unnecessary material while preserving strength, while the reinforced Sprint Spec inner lip, optimized spoke profile, and high-clearance barrel help maximize brake clearance, impact resistance, and overall rigidity. Every VS-5RS wheel is independently tested beyond standard JWL requirements for added confidence in demanding driving environments.
