Sapphire Luxury Alloys entered the aftermarket in 2022 with a narrow, deliberate focus: refined wheels for luxury sedans, coupes, and crossovers rather than another catalog trying to cover every vehicle on the road. That discipline shows. The lineup pairs restrained multi-spoke mesh patterns and split five-spoke silhouettes with finishes that read expensive without shouting, and it is engineered specifically around modern European and premium domestic platforms. Sizes run 20 inches to 22 inches in 5-lug bolt patterns, with Gloss Black, Gloss Black Machined Face, and Bronze anchoring the finish options. The result is a wheel that looks at home on a G-Wagen, a 5 Series, a Charger, or a Grand Cherokee without the aggressive off-road cues that dominate so much of the market. Performance Plus Tire has been family-owned since 1978, and our team brings over 100 years of combined experience to matching offset, width, and tire size to your specific vehicle.

Most aftermarket wheel brands chase volume by covering every segment at once. Sapphire took the opposite approach, launching with a tight lineup built around a single idea the company sums up as "Luxury is Made." Rather than borrowing off-road styling cues or leaning on oversized lips and heavy milling, Sapphire's designers work in the language of factory luxury wheels and then push it further: split spokes that taper toward the lip to suggest motion even when the car is parked, and dense mesh patterns that fill the wheel face without looking busy.
That restraint is the point. A Sapphire wheel is meant to look like an upgrade the factory should have offered, which is why the brand describes its customer as the urban-luxury driver. Gloss Black delivers the cleanest monochrome look on dark and silver vehicles. Gloss Black Machined Face adds contrast and dimension that reads especially well under showroom or streetlight conditions. Bronze has become the enthusiast pick, particularly on white, gray, and deep blue paint where the warm tone provides genuine separation from the body color.
The SX01 uses a bold five-split-spoke layout with spokes that narrow elegantly as they reach the lip, giving it a luxury-sport crossover character. It is offered in Gloss Black and Gloss Black Machined Face. The SX02 moves to a mesh-style multi-spoke design that is more traditional and more formal, available in Gloss Black and Gloss Black Machined Face in 20x9. The SX03 is the most versatile of the group, offered in both 20x9 and 22x9 across Gloss Black, Gloss Black Machined Face, and Bronze, which makes it the common choice for full-size SUVs that need the larger diameter to fill the wheel well properly. The SX05 rounds out the range with Gloss Black, Bronze, and a Gloss Black Milled treatment for buyers who want visible machining detail without giving up the luxury profile.
Because Sapphire builds around luxury platforms, most applications use 5-lug patterns such as 5x114.3 and 5x120, which covers a wide swath of European sedans and crossovers along with many premium domestic vehicles. Bolt pattern alone does not guarantee fitment, though. Offset and backspacing determine brake caliper clearance, which matters more on performance-braked luxury vehicles than on almost anything else, and hub bore has to be addressed correctly with the proper centering rings. Staggered setups also need careful attention so the front and rear widths work with your tire choice.

Sapphire is an American aftermarket wheel brand established in 2022, marketed as Sapphire Luxury Alloys and Sapphire Luxury Wheels. The company designs its wheels specifically for luxury sedans, coupes, and SUVs, with a stated focus on modern European platforms. Its designs are developed in-house around a luxury-first styling brief rather than adapted from off-road or truck wheel lines.
Yes. Both names refer to the same company and the same product line. You will see the brand listed as Sapphire Luxury Alloys on some retailer sites and as Sapphire Luxury Wheels on others, and the SX-series model numbers are identical across both. If you find a part number under one name, it will match the other.
Sapphire wheels are offered in 20-inch and 22-inch diameters, most commonly in a 9-inch width. Bolt patterns are 5-lug configurations including 5x114.3 and 5x120, which fit a broad range of luxury sedans, coupes, and crossovers. Availability varies by model, so the SX03 is generally the option to look at if you need a 22-inch fitment.
The core finish options are Gloss Black, Gloss Black with a Machined Face, and Bronze, with a Gloss Black Milled treatment available on the SX05. Not every finish is offered on every model, so the SX01 and SX02 are limited to the two black variants while the SX03 and SX05 add Bronze. Call us if you want a specific finish and we will confirm which model numbers currently carry it.
The differences are primarily in spoke design and available sizing. The SX01 uses a bold five-split-spoke layout with a luxury-sport character, while the SX02 is a denser mesh-style multi-spoke design with a more formal look. The SX03 is the most flexible, offered in both 20x9 and 22x9 and in all three main finishes, and the SX05 adds a milled option for buyers who want visible machining detail.
Sapphire fitments cover many 5-lug luxury sedans, coupes, and crossovers, but bolt pattern alone does not confirm fit. Offset, backspacing, and hub bore all determine whether the wheel clears your brake calipers and sits correctly in the fender, and luxury vehicles with large factory brake packages need particular attention here. Call our fitment team at (888) 926-2689 with your year, make, model, and trim and we will verify clearance before you order.
Sapphire wheels are cast alloy wheels engineered and load-rated for the luxury sedans, coupes, and SUVs they are designed to fit, with finish quality that is a clear focus of the brand. They are positioned as a premium-appearance upgrade at a more accessible price than forged or OEM-optional wheels. As with any wheel, correct load rating and fitment for your specific vehicle matter more than brand alone, which is why we verify both before shipping an order.
Sapphire wheels carry the manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Structural coverage and finish coverage typically run for different periods, and damage from potholes, curb strikes, improper installation, or harsh chemical wheel cleaners is not covered. Contact us at (888) 926-2689 and we will provide the current warranty terms for the model you are considering.
Wash with mild soap and water using a soft brush or microfiber, and never clean wheels while they are hot from driving. Acidic and high-alkaline wheel cleaners are the most common cause of permanent damage to machined faces and bronze finishes, so avoid them entirely and rinse brake dust off regularly rather than letting it bake on. A wheel-safe sealant makes routine cleaning easier and helps protect the clear coat over time.
Performance Plus Tire has been family-owned since 1978 and stocks over 5,000 custom wheels ready to ship nationwide.
