Product Information

Apex VS-5RX Forged BMW Wheel 21X9.5 ET18 (5X112 / 66.6) - Anthracite

Designed to maximize performance and look great doing it, the lightweight VS-5RX is specifically engineered for the unique needs of today's high-performance SUVs and EVs.

SUVs and EVs have evolved. They’re high-performance platforms in their own right, and cars like the BMW X3M and Tesla Model S now outperform the supercars of yesteryear. They demand a Real Performance wheel and the forged VS-5RX was specifically engineered to provide the strength and durability these heavier applications require, all while dropping an immense amount of rational mass. At ~11 lbs lighter than many of their OEM counterparts, the VS-5RX dramatically improves the performance of modern SUVs and EVs, and because it was designed from the ground up for these applications, the VS-5RX provides a flush, aggressive fitment without modifications or spacers.

Real Performance means designing the best solution possible, without compromise. SUVs and EVs have consistently evolved to be faster and handle better, but they’ve also grown progressively heavier. That calls for a stronger wheel with a higher load-rating to keep up. The VS-5RX utilizes our motorsport-proven technology to provide a true performance upgrade in a remarkably lightweight wheel that’s packed with subtle features that strengthen and support the immense weight and power of modern SUV and EV applications.

Often over ~11 lb lighter than many of their OEM counterparts, the VS-5RX’s weight-savings make this wheel a true game changer in the SUV and EV category. Shaving ~45 lbs of unsprung rotational mass off of your SUV or EV vastly improves acceleration, braking, handling and even fuel/charge mileage.

Almost all VS-5RX fitments feature OEM tire compatibility, making it truly a plug-and-play performance upgrade for your SUV or EV that does not require shopping for different tire sizes.

The forged VS-5RX was engineered specifically for these fitments, which allowed us to design it from the ground-up to deliver an aggressive look with maximum concavity, have massive brake clearance, and provide a flush fitment without the hassle of modification or spacers.

Wheel stiffness is a critical performance metric that too often is ignored. The redesigned spokes of the VS-5RX are about 25% stiffer than the Sprint Line version.

With the same outer lip as our Enduro line, VS-5RX uses extra material in the front lip for improved strength and durability. You can easily spot the beefed up design of an Enduro spec lip vs. the lightweight lip on a Sprint Line wheel.

To make our forged wheels the strongest we can, we applied as much pressure as possible using a 10,000 ton forge. This extreme pressure increases the strength of the aluminum by eliminating porosity and improving the grain structure.

Many companies use 3rd-party blanks intended for non-motorsport wheels which can severely limit sizes, concavity, spoke design, and critical brake clearance. We designed our very own blank profiles from scratch to give us total control over the final product.

One of the most prominent features of the VS-5RX is its extra wide and deep side-milled spokes. Any excess material that doesn’t add strength is carved out using a precision CNC ball cutter. Not only does this offer a stunning visual characteristic, it dramatically decreases weight.

At Apex, we cater every wheel fitment to its specific application. Utilizing 3D scans we take in-house, VS-5RX wheels are designed to clear the often massive OEM brake calipers of performance SUVs and EVs while maximizing concavity.

Our new forgings were redesigned to create extra deep, concave spoke profiles. Their new shape allows us to make any profile, from flat to deep and everything in between, each optimized for a specific application using 3D laser scans of factory and aftermarket brake kits.

As track enthusiasts ourselves, we know how frustrating it is to locate and decipher wheel specs that have been hastily marked on a wheel or become unreadable over time. Our Enduro wheels have laser-engraved specs on the barrel, in plain sight, making them easy to find and read.
