Forged construction at 22.3 pounds in a 20x11.5 ET48 fitment gives the APEX VS-5RS a meaningful weight advantage over cast alternatives, cutting unsprung and rotational mass where it costs you the most on street and track.
Sprint Line forged monoblock construction. APEX's Sprint Line wheels start as a single forged billet, producing a wheel that is denser, stronger, and lighter than anything cast. The VS-5RS carries that process into a five-spoke RS profile tuned for high-performance Mustang fitments spanning the 2005-2026 model years.
20x11.5 ET48 geometry for wide rear fitment. The 11.5-inch width opens up tire selection for wide performance rubber, while the ET48 offset positions the contact patch correctly within the Mustang's rear fender envelope. This combination works across the S197 and S550 platforms without requiring spacers or fender modifications on standard setups.
Brushed Clear finish built for longevity. The brushed aluminum face sits under a clear coat that shields the machined surface from brake dust, road grime, and UV exposure. The result holds its appearance through track sessions and everyday miles without demanding constant maintenance.
