Forged from a single billet, the APEX VS-5RS delivers the strength and weight savings that track-day Mustang owners actually need, in a 20x11 ET52 fitment that works across every S197 and S550 chassis from 2005 through 2026.
Sprint Line forged construction. APEX's Sprint Line wheels start as a solid billet forging rather than a casting, producing a denser grain structure that resists cracking under lateral load. At 21.3 lbs for a 20x11 shell, the VS-5RS cuts unsprung and rotational mass compared to comparable cast alternatives, which sharpens steering feedback and reduces the inertia the brakes have to overcome at corner entry.
A fitment that works straight from the box. The ET52 offset places the wheel face at the correct depth for stock and lightly modified S197 and S550 Mustang suspension geometry. No spacers, no rubbing clearance guesswork on a 20x11 width, just a direct bolt-on that sits flush within the fender line.
Anthracite finish for long-term durability. The dark anthracite coating resists brake dust and road grime without demanding constant attention, and it holds its appearance through the heat cycles that track use generates near the rotor face.
