APEX Wheels VS-5RS Forged Wheel | 20×9.5 ET29 | 5×114.3

Description

The APEX VS-5RS is a forged wheel from APEX’s Sprint Line, engineered specifically for Tesla applications utilizing the 5×114.3 bolt pattern with 64.1mm center bore. This 20×9.5 ET29 wheel addresses the performance demands of Tesla enthusiasts who require both strength and reduced unsprung weight for improved handling dynamics. The forged construction approach delivers superior material density and structural integrity compared to cast alternatives.

The VS-5RS achieves a weight of 20.0 lbs in the 20×9.5 configuration, representing a reduction in rotational mass that directly impacts acceleration, braking performance, and suspension response. This weight optimization is accomplished through the forged manufacturing process, which allows for precise material placement and thinner spoke sections without compromising structural strength required for high-performance Tesla applications.

Forged construction utilizes a single piece of aluminum that is heated and formed under extreme pressure, creating a wheel with enhanced grain structure and material properties. This manufacturing method produces wheels that are both lighter and stronger than cast equivalents, making them suitable for high-performance driving applications where wheel failure is not acceptable. The forged process eliminates the porosity and inconsistencies found in cast wheels, resulting in a denser, more reliable structure capable of withstanding the demands of track use and spirited driving.

The VS-5RS incorporates a Profile 2 face design that positions the spokes and mounting surface for optimal brake clearance and visual depth. The 60-degree conical hardware seat ensures proper lug nut engagement and load distribution across the mounting surface. The 20×9.5 ET29 sizing provides the proper wheel placement within the wheel well for Tesla applications while maintaining appropriate suspension geometry.
