Apex VS-5RX 21x9.5 Forged Touring Wheel - 5x112 BP / ET18 / 66.6mm CB - Satin Black (BMW) - VS5RX2195ET18-5112-666-NSBK
Engineered specifically for today's high-performance BMW SUVs and EVs, the Apex VS-5RX Forged Touring Wheel delivers the perfect combination of lightweight performance, exceptional strength, and aggressive styling. Modern performance SUVs and EVs generate incredible power while carrying significantly more weight than traditional sports cars, demanding a wheel built to handle the challenge. The VS-5RX answers with fully forged 6061-T6 aluminum construction, motorsport-inspired engineering, and substantial weight savings that improve acceleration, braking, cornering response, and overall driving dynamics.
Designed from the ground up for these demanding applications, the VS-5RX is often more than 11 pounds lighter than many factory wheels, reducing approximately 45 pounds of unsprung rotational mass across the vehicle. Reinforced with Apex's Enduro Spec inner and outer lips, a robust 2,100 pound load rating, and approximately 25 percent stiffer spokes than the Sprint Line design, this wheel is built to thrive under the increased loads generated by today's powerful SUVs and EVs. Finished in Satin Black, it delivers a clean, aggressive appearance while maintaining OEM tire compatibility on most applications and providing flush fitment without requiring spacers or modifications.

FAQs
Can I use my factory BMW tires with this wheel?
Yes. Most VS-5RX applications are designed to retain OEM tire sizing, making this a true plug-and-play performance upgrade without requiring different tires.
Why was the VS-5RX designed specifically for SUVs and EVs?
Performance SUVs and EVs place greater loads on wheels due to their increased weight and power. The VS-5RX addresses these demands with a reinforced 2,100 pound load rating, Enduro Spec lips, stiffer spokes, and optimized brake clearance while still providing significant weight savings over many factory wheels.
