This 18x11 ET36 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SM-10 features the 71.6mm center bore specification, providing precise hub-centric mounting for Porsche applications. The ET36 offset positions the wheel mounting surface to optimize suspension geometry and maintain proper brake clearance for the 11-inch width configuration. This offset works specifically with the aggressive width to deliver appropriate wheel placement within the wheel well while accommodating performance brake upgrades commonly found on Porsche platforms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SM-10 incorporates Profile 3 face design, providing the deep concave geometry suited for wide applications like the 11-inch width. The R14 ball seat hardware configuration ensures proper lug nut seating for secure wheel mounting. APEX offers the SM-10 in Race Silver finish, delivering both aesthetic appeal and corrosion resistance for long-term durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility: Porsche (5x130 bolt pattern)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Flow Formed aluminum construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware Seat: R14 Ball Seat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFace Profile: Profile 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter Bore: 71.6mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable Finish: Race Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: SM101811ET36-5130-716-RS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eWheel Specifications:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable class=\"custable\" style=\"border-collapse:collapse;font-size:90%;width:100%;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"color:#ffffff;background-color:#03589c;height:21.875px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;width:10%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIAMETER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;width:10%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWIDTH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;width:10%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOFFSET\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;width:12%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBOLT PATTERN\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;width:12%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCENTER BORE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;width:14%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONSTRUCTION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;width:12%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFACE PROFILE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;width:12%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHARDWARE SEAT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;width:8%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWEIGHT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color:#e8f4f8;height:32px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;\"\u003e18\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;\"\u003e11.0\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;\"\u003eET36\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;\"\u003e5x130mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;\"\u003e71.6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;\"\u003eFlow Formed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;\"\u003eProfile 3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;\"\u003eR14 Ball Seat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:center;\"\u003eNone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"APEX Wheels","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47665388322967,"sku":"SM101811ET36-5130-716-RS","price":494.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2641\/0682\/files\/b2fa1bdcd19330dc387aa70173f7202c3e201df0-2000x2000_264981b2-d795-48f9-8568-cf7c8e2c9672.png?v=1776198592","url":"https:\/\/autotalent.com\/products\/apex-wheels-sm-10-flow-formed-wheel-18x11-et36-5x130","provider":"AutoTalent","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
