I have a 2025 Stingray - I would like to know if anyone has had any issues with the Apex VS5RS wheels. My concern is the extra 16 mm (5/8 inch) offset. Do these wheels have a tendency to throw up stones on the side of the car. Also, do they affect warranty in any way. Can you recommend an online dealer?
Apex VS 5RS wheel questions
- Thread starter Stingray24
- Start date
I have a set of Apex VS-5RS wheels on a 2021 Z51 SR.
I went with:
18x10 ET42 Front with 275/35-18 Tires (Continental Extreme Contact Force)
19x11.5 ET48 Rear with 325/30-19 Tires (Continental Extreme Contact Force)
Also adjusted the front and rear camber to Track Spec. (I did not notice excessive tire wear)
The above tires are a very good HP compromise. They work well in the rain for street use and work reasonably well on track.
I have not had any fitment issues at all over the last 1.5 years.
No wheel and tire size compatibility issues, no warranty issues and no issues with stones hitting on the body work..
(Also saved about 60 Lbs. overall in wheel and tire weight.)

Throw up some pics please.....
I have the stock diameter VS5RS. The differences are .5" wider for the front and rear with the APEX offset.
No problem wjth stone and what not. I do have the wide mid guard from Paragon. The Amazon ones are not adequate. Flush with the fenders. Looks great.
My rims with tires are forsale if you haven't bought a set already. I will let them go for good prices. FYI.

cdnz, curious to know if you stayed with stock tire sizes or went a little wider, given the .5" extra wheel width.
I'm a fan of taller sidewall. Did that with mine too...
