Apex VS-5 Flow Formed Wheel - 17x8.5 ET40 - 5x120 - Anthracite

Product Details

The Apex VS-5 in 17x8.5" ET40 Anthracite is a flow formed wheel that's hub-centric on most 5x120 BMWs, including the E36, E46, E9x, F3x and F8x. It brings Apex's iconic five-spoke look to a flow-formed wheel, with features usually saved for forged designs. It's one of the best values in the Apex range for a BMW that splits time between the street and the track.

Turner's take: One of our favorites, with the perfect balance of sleek and stout looks.

Features

• Flow-formed construction
• Side-milled spokes remove non-structural weight
• Reinforced inner lip for added strength
• Very concave face profiles in select sizes
• Maximum clearance for Big Brake Kits (BBK)

Specifications

Good to Know

Will it fit my BMW?
It matches the 5x120 bolt pattern and 72.56mm hub, so no hub rings are needed. Our vehicle fitment list confirms bolt pattern and hub only, not front or rear placement. Most BMWs use different widths and offsets front and rear, and some models also change diameter or center bore between axles. Offsets outside the usual range can sometimes work with wheel spacers and longer lug bolts. Big Brake Kits (BBK) and widebody setups also affect clearance, so confirm front and rear fitment for your car before ordering.

What lug bolts does it use?
60° conical-seat lug bolts. BMW factory bolts are ball seat and can't be reused.

Does it come with a center cap?
It comes with an Apex gloss black center cap. OEM cap support is more limited than on the forged VS-5RS, so check before planning to reuse your BMW caps.

Is this one wheel or a set?
Price is per wheel. Check your front and rear sizes first, or choose one of our matched Apex wheel sets.
