Overview

The APEX Wheels VS-5 from the Evolution Line represents a precision-engineered flow formed wheel designed for applications requiring 5x114.3 bolt pattern compatibility. This 18x9.5 ET40 wheel addresses the demands of 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 the 56.1mm center bore specification designed for proper hub-centric fitment on compatible applications. The 18x9.5 ET40 sizing provides balanced offset positioning for performance applications, while the 5x114.3 bolt pattern accommodates a wide range of Japanese and domestic performance vehicles. The Evolution Line positioning indicates APEX's focus on delivering flow formed technology in configurations optimized for performance driving scenarios.

Multiple finish options extend the VS-5's application versatility, with Anthracite, Hyper Black, Race Silver, Satin Bronze, and Satin Black variants available. Each finish provides different aesthetic approaches while maintaining the underlying flow formed construction integrity that defines the Evolution Line series.
