SM-10 Features
Big Brake Clearance
All of our VW SM-10 wheels will clear the standard Golf R and GTI Performance Package brakes with ease, as well as a variety of aftermarket BBK's. To see if these wheels can clear your specific BBK, please check out our brake clearance database at the end of the fitment guide here.
The Flow Form Advantage
Flow forming enables us to create high-performance wheels without the price premium of forging. It improves the mechanical properties and grain structure of the barrel, increasing its strength and stiffness, which allows us to use less material and reduce weight. Thanks to our superior engineering, our flow formed wheels have a higher load rating than some competitors' forged wheels.
"I" Beam Spokes
One of the most prominent features of the SM-10 is its advanced "I" beam spoke machining. Any excess material that doesn’t add strength is carved out from the sides of the spokes using a precision CNC ball cutter. This process is often deemed cost-prohibitive by others, but for performance without compromise we believe it's essential.
Bigger, Tougher Inner Lip
The inner lip is the most vulnerable part of a wheel because it has no spokes for support. Our Evolution line adds more material to this high-impact area for an extra layer of protection against track berms, potholes, and whatever else the road may throw at you.
Whether it’s a day at the track or months of street driving, repeated hard braking can make a tire slip along the bead seat and go out of balance, causing vibration. We’ve added knurled beads to help grip the tire and reduce unwanted slippage.
Built for Impact Sockets
Track wheels need track tools. Don’t settle for wheels that require undersized tuner lugs or thin walled sockets. All APEX wheels accommodate over-sized race lugs and impact sockets to make swapping wheels lightning fast.
Finishing Touches
All Evolution line wheels are finished using a multi-stage liquid paint over a powder coated base coat. This coating process leaves lug holes, center bores and mounting pads untouched, which ensures proper fit and torque values.
No centering rings required. All VW specific 5x112mm bolt pattern wheels feature a direct-fit, 57.1mm center bore.
Center Caps
All APEX VW wheels come with our Gloss Black APEX cap included which is interchangeable with the OE non-floating VW center cap.
Hardware
The SM-10 wheels can be used with all OEM VW and aftermarket mounting hardware with a R13 ball seat.
