Forged construction meets track-proven geometry in the APEX VS-5RS, a Sprint Line wheel sized specifically for the wide-body and performance fitments on 2005-2026 Mustangs that demand a 20x11.5 ET48 rear position.
Forged for weight savings that matter. At 22.3 lbs, the VS-5RS uses a forged construction process to strip unsprung and rotational mass from corners where it counts most. Less rotational weight means quicker acceleration, sharper braking, and a more responsive suspension.
Sprint Line pedigree. The VS-5RS sits within APEX's Sprint Line family, a lineup built around closed-course performance. The five-spoke RS architecture balances torsional rigidity with the clearance needed for large brake packages common on track-prepped Mustangs.
Anthracite finish across a purposeful size. The 20x11.5 width accommodates wide rear tire fitments without stretching, and the ET48 offset positions the contact patch correctly under the S197, S550, and S650 chassis. The anthracite finish resists brake dust adhesion and holds up under the thermal cycling of repeated track sessions.
