Forged from a single billet, the APEX VS-5RS in 18x11 ET52 delivers the strength-to-weight ratio that serious Mustang track builds demand, wrapped in a satin bronze finish that stands out in the paddock and on the street.
Forged construction at 19.2 lbs. The VS-5RS comes in at 19.2 lbs in this 18x11 configuration, a figure made possible by the forged manufacturing process that removes material without sacrificing structural integrity. Lower unsprung and rotational mass translates directly into sharper steering response, faster acceleration, and more consistent braking.
Part of the Sprint Line family. APEX developed the Sprint Line specifically for track-focused applications, where a wheel has to survive repeated heat cycles, curb strikes, and the stress of aggressive cornering loads. The VS-5RS five-spoke design carries that brief through geometry and material selection, not just aesthetics.
A fitment built for the S197 through S650 Mustang. The 18x11 diameter and width pair with ET52 offset to clear a wide range of brake packages across the 2005-2026 Mustang lineup, making this a strong choice whether the car is a weekend track car or a dual-purpose build.
Satin bronze finish. The satin bronze anodized finish resists brake dust and heat discoloration better than painted alternatives, and its muted metallic tone pairs cleanly with both factory and aftermarket body colors without demanding attention.
