Introducing Two All-New Forged Designs
The ML-7RT and SL-12RT are the latest wheels to join our Forged Touring line. Both of these wheels represent an exciting new step in our product offering and combine striking aesthetic characteristics with the Real Performance features BMW enthusiasts have come to expect from Apex wheels.
ML-7RT
Our exploration of lipped wheel design didn’t end with the ML-10RT. In search of a new design direction, we reimagined the iconic face of the EC-7 and EC-7RS within the outer lip geometry of the ML-10RT. The result is a seamless fusion. By pairing the EC-7RS-inspired face with the ML-10RT’s revised outer lip structure, we created an all-new wheel that preserves the aggressive, lipped mesh aesthetic—now with a cleaner, more streamlined face and a more purposeful outer lip. The ML-7RT is a natural fit for European sports cars, blending a timeless motorsport-inspired design with the advantages of modern forging technology.

Meet the ML-7RT
In terms of ML-7RT fitments, a limited initial range of sizes will be available:

The wheel finishes available at launch include Machined lip Anthracite, Machined Lip Gloss Motorsport Gold, and Machined Lip Race silver. Note that 5x112 fitments will only be available in Gold and Silver.
This is a curated offering that targets a number of 5x112 and 5x120 bolt pattern BMWs including M and non-M models. Don’t see what you’re looking for? Our engineers are working on more fitments & finishes every day. Please use our

SL-12RT
As a Touring Line wheel, the SL-12RT’s design showcases a more muscular, expressive aesthetic, blending the stepped-lip geometry of the ML-7RT with twelve straight spokes. It’s a look that gives this wheel a muscular presence that’s distinct from the more complex styles of the ML-10RT and ML-7RT. Bold looks, backed by even bolder engineering and strength make the SL-12RT an ideal wheel for high-horsepower builds and aggressive driving.

The wheel finishes available at launch include Machined lip Anthracite, Machined Lip Race silver, and a first for our lipped wheels, Fully painted Satin Black:
