Description
The APEX Wheels VS-5 from the Evolution Line represents a precision-engineered flow formed wheel designed for BMW applications requiring 5×120 bolt pattern compatibility. This 18×10 ET25 wheel addresses the demands of wide performance applications through APEX’s flow formed construction process, which combines casting efficiency with enhanced strength characteristics to deliver optimal performance for track and street use.
The wheel utilizes flow formed construction, a manufacturing process that begins with a cast wheel blank before applying specialized forming techniques. During flow forming, the wheel barrel is spun at high speed while rollers apply controlled pressure, stretching and compressing the aluminum to create a denser grain structure. This process increases the material strength while reducing weight compared to traditional cast wheels, positioning flow formed construction between cast and forged methods in terms of both performance and cost.
The VS-5 features Profile 3 face design, providing the deep concave geometry suited for the 10-inch width configuration. The 72.56mm center bore specification provides precise hub-centric fitment for BMW applications, ensuring proper load distribution and eliminating vibration issues that can occur with non-hub-centric installations. The wheel incorporates 60 degree conical hardware seat design, accommodating the BMW factory lug bolt configuration for proper installation and retention.
The VS-5 offers multiple finish options including Anthracite, Hyper Black, Race Silver, and Satin Black, allowing customization to match specific aesthetic preferences while maintaining the same structural performance characteristics across all finish variants.
