Default New Apex Wheels

Hey all,
Just wanted to share some pics of my new Apex VS-5RS forged wheels I had installed today. 19x10.5 ET36 F/20x12.5 ET55 R using OEM tire sizes. Fronts come in at about 20lbs and the rears 22lbs, so a fair amount of unsprung weight saved. I’ve had 5 pairs of Signature’s on various cars, but for the price these are some nice wheels…bought them on a group buy so I saved $400 and free shipping.

Those look great. You could put signature center caps on if you wanted and no one would know the difference.
what offsets?

Nice choice! Been eyeballing these all day looking at different specs and colors. Unfortunately time to replace the high dollar OEM wheels that have run out.

Looks great. I too got in on the GB for some bronze VS5RS, probably my favorite wheels I’ve put on any car, and that’s saying a lot.

Regarding center caps, the OEM caps fit, I put some black ones on mine.

I ordered mine late March and received them end of June. Send them an email and ask for an update. They kept me in the loop when I inquired.

I have multiple speed bumps in my neighborhood. I wish I could, but it would be a greater pain in the *** than it is currently.

I participated in a group buy last year and shipped they were $3400. That was saving $400 and free shipping included for the group.
There’s a tax month sale going on with up to 25pct off so check out their website.
