Forged from a single billet, the APEX VS-5RS delivers a wheel weight of 18.4 lbs in an 18x10 ET40 fitment that covers every fifth-generation and sixth-generation Mustang from 2005 through 2026, shaving rotational mass without sacrificing structural integrity.
Sprint Line forged construction. APEX places the VS-5RS in its Sprint Line family, where the forging process aligns the grain structure of the alloy for a stronger, lighter wheel than a comparable cast unit. At 18.4 lbs, the VS-5RS keeps unsprung and rotational weight low, which translates directly into sharper steering response and better acceleration and braking.
18x10 ET40 geometry works with factory and aftermarket setups. The 10-inch width provides a wide contact patch for sticky rubber, while the ET40 offset positions the wheel face correctly within the Mustang's fender arc across the full 2005-2026 model range. This eliminates the guesswork of spacers or custom hub adapters that compromise bearing load angles.
Anthracite finish for lasting appearance. The anthracite colorway sits between gloss black and raw silver, adding visual depth to the five-spoke RS design without demanding the upkeep of a polished or chrome surface. The finish complements the VS-5RS spoke profile without overpowering it.
