Forged from a single billet, the APEX VS-5RS in 19x11 ET52 delivers a wheel weight of just 20.4 lbs in a size that fills the rear quarter of an S197 or S550 Mustang without compromise.
Sprint Line forged construction. The VS-5RS belongs to APEX's Sprint Line family, where each wheel starts as a forged billet blank and is machined to final form. Forging aligns the grain structure of the alloy, producing a wheel that resists fatigue and impact loads more effectively than a comparable cast unit at the same or greater weight.
A 20.4 lb forged wheel in a 19x11 package. Rotational mass has a disproportionate effect on acceleration, braking, and steering feel compared to equivalent static weight. At 20.4 lbs, the VS-5RS keeps unsprung and rotational weight in check without requiring a tradeoff in wheel diameter or width.
Brushed Clear finish built for real use. The Brushed Clear finish exposes the machined aluminum surface under a protective clear coat, giving the wheel a understated, industrial look that ages gracefully and holds up to brake dust, track debris, and regular cleaning without peeling or flaking like painted surfaces can.
19x11 ET52 geometry fits the Mustang platform. The ET52 offset positions the wheel face correctly within the Mustang's front and rear wheel wells from 2005 through 2026, working with stock and common aftermarket suspension geometry without requiring spacers on most fitments.
Product Benefits
- Forged Construction: Single-billet forging produces a stronger, more fatigue-resistant wheel than cast alternatives.
- Sprint Line Pedigree: Part of APEX's purpose-built Sprint Line family, developed for performance-focused applications.
- Low Rotational Mass: 20.4 lbs in a 19x11 size reduces the inertia penalty at every acceleration and braking event.
- Brushed Clear Finish: Machined aluminum surface protected by clear coat for a durable, low-maintenance appearance.
- Broad Mustang Fitment: ET52 offset covers 2005-2026 Mustang applications in this size.
- 19x11 Sizing: Wide rear fitment supports performance tire widths suited to track and street use.
About APEX Wheels: APEX Wheels focuses exclusively on forged and flow-formed wheels engineered for track-day and performance street use. The company builds each wheel to meet the demands of repeated high-load cycles, with fitment data validated against specific vehicle platforms rather than relying on generic sizing charts.
