Whether you enjoy your Porsche on the street, or you are a weekend warrior competing for a podium spot, our seasoned experts are here provide advise to ensure you get the most of your wheel and tire setup.
We encourage enthusiasts here on Rennlist to also share photos of their APEX wheels, and if you do, we're sure the community would greatly appreciate the supplementary information below:
APEX wheel model, specs, and finish
Tire model and specifications
Suspension and brake modifications (if applicable)
We'll kick things off by showing off a favorite photo of each of our available designs in both 5 lug and centerlock applications:
Where did you get to with the 19” wheel project? Looking forward wheels for a Turbo.
What model and generation Turbo do you have? We have several 19" wheels to choose from but it depends on which model and generation as to which wheel works where.
We do not make an 18x8.5" forged wheel for Porsche, we only produce an 18x8.5"ET45 in our Flow Formed SM-10 for your chassis. Are you trying to meet a rule set for autocross or other form of competition or what are your goals for this set of wheels? Feel free to PM me if you would rather have the conversation there.

Introducing the all new Apex Forged Enduro Line. Designed to withstand the combined stresses of extra sticky tires, crazy downforce, fast drivers, and inevitable mistakes. Available in two designs at launch. The VS-5RE and SM-10RE are strength optimized versions of our popular lightweight designs. Priced similarly to our Sprint line wheels, every enthusiast can choose which version is best for their needs.
Part of our commitment to Real Performance, these are our strongest and most durable wheels, with dramatically higher load ratings, stiffer spokes, and tougher lips than ever before.
There’s a constant industry push for lighter wheels, but if saving weight is the top priority then strength and stiffness can be compromised. We see it often in the pursuit of lower advertised weights, and many cars end up ill-equipped as a result. The reality is that all enthusiasts could benefit from stronger and stiffer wheels, while some critically require it.
Visit our website to place your pre-order now, wheels are set to arrive beginning in May. 25% deposit required to reserve a set.
I ordered, from a distributor in Toronto, a set of anthracite VS-5RS in 20x9 ET44 and 20x12 ET47 back on December 18, 2023. Back then I was told they were "backordered (likely pending production)" and that it could be April or May of 2024 for an anthracite-finish in these sizes. More recently I was told mid-April.
Now that we're just a couple of weeks from "mid April" does this sound like a realistic timeframe for these wheels?
