New Product Release
APEX 19" SM-10 Wheel for Porsche 911 Narrowbody - Shipping Now!
Following the success of our strong, lightweight, 18” Porsche wheels, we’re excited to release our first batch of 19” SM-10 fitments engineered specifically for the 911 narrowbody platform. This first round of production focuses on performance-oriented fitments, mating our 9” front wheels to your choice of 11” or 12” rear wheels depending on which generation 911 chassis you have, and your desired rear tire size. Whether you enjoy your 911 on the street attacking curvy canyon roads, or you’re a hardcore track junkie, we’ve got you covered.
We conducted extensive laser scanning to ensure these wheels clear all 996/997/991 factory brakes including the 380mm PCCB, as well as popular aftermarket kits like the AP Racing by Essex 372mm BBK, Brembo GT/GTS/GTR 380mm BBK, and more.
For years, the enthusiast community has expressed a desire for a broader selection of lightweight, race-proven wheels at affordable prices. Owners were often faced with an unsatisfying choice – pay an exorbitant amount of money for custom wheel solutions or significantly compromise quality and performance with conservative, off-the-shelf options. We solved that problem with our 18” SM-10 wheel and have now expanded the line to include 19”.
