1221 Wheels 0441 AP2 APEX3.0 Forged Wheels

1221 Wheels 0441 AP2 APEX3.0 — Four-Spoke Precision in Two-Piece Forged Form

The 0441 brings a disciplined four-spoke split architecture to the AP2 platform: each spoke bifurcates at the barrel entry, creating a pronounced open-face geometry that amplifies concave depth far beyond what a solid multi-spoke design can achieve. In the APEX3.0 edition with two-piece forged construction, the 0441 AP2 translates this aggressive visual stance into a production-ready wheel — the forged face and independently forged outer barrel allow the concave bowl to be dialled to your exact offset requirement, while the 20|EX titanium fastener system keeps the hardware invisible from the front. Built at 1221 Wheels' City of Industry, CA facility, the 0441 AP2 APEX3.0 is the go-to specification for builds that demand a wide, deep dish without sacrificing face cleanliness.

Need a Different Size?

The 0441 AP2 APEX3.0 is produced entirely to order from California — no warehouse inventory, no fixed offset range. Because the face and barrel are separate forgings, width and offset adjustments are made at the barrel stage without touching the spoke tooling, so virtually any combination of diameter, width, and ET can be achieved in a single order.

• Custom finishes: Two-tone face/barrel, polished lip, custom RAL — available on request
• Manufactured: City of Industry, CA, USA
• Lead time: Approximately 3–6 weeks from order confirmation

Finish & Colour Options

The open face geometry of the 0441 AP2 APEX3.0 makes finish selection particularly impactful: because the spokes are narrow and the bowl area is wide, contrast finishes between face and barrel produce a dramatic visual split that a denser spoke design would partially mask. A Brushed Gloss Titanium face on a Solid Matte Black barrel turns the concave into a dark void behind a bright spoke mesh — an effect that is machined and assembled as a unified component, not achieved through painting or post-production masking. All 34 standard finishes from 1221's catalogue are available for face and barrel independently, and three-tone custom specifications can be produced on request.

Vehicle Fitment Guide — Wide-Body and Aggressive Stance Applications

The 0441 AP2 APEX3.0's split-spoke geometry is best appreciated on builds with wide-body fender flares, high-stretch tyre profiles, or significant arch-filling stance modifications, where the open face gives the eye a direct line through the spokes to the deep concave barrel. The two-piece construction's offset flexibility makes it equally at home on standard factory arch clearances — the barrel can be adjusted to achieve flush fitment on completely standard bodywork.

• BMW M2, M3, M4 (G87/G80/G82) — narrow-body and wide-body builds
• Nissan GT-R (R35) — Pandem, Liberty Walk, and OEM+ specifications
• Toyota GR Supra A90 — aggressive fitment and JDM-style builds
• Subaru WRX STI (VA/VB) — track-prepared and street-tuned applications
• Ford Mustang GT500, Shelby GT350 — track-day and show car builds
• Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, Z/28 — wide stance and racing livery builds
• Honda Civic Type R (FK8/FL5) — aggressive fitment, flush profile
• Volkswagen Golf R, GTI Clubsport — modified stance applications
• Porsche Cayman GT4, Boxster Spyder — deep concave fitment
• Any vehicle where a deep concave 4-spoke profile in 18"–22" is required — confirm fitment with us

Other Bolt Patterns — Drilled to Your Exact Application

The 0441 AP2 APEX3.0 is custom-drilled per order — there is no pre-drilled PCD restriction. Standard patterns include 5×112, 5×114.3, 5×120, 5×130, 5×108, and 5×100; 4×100, 4×108, and 6×139.7 are available on request. Centre bore is machined to your vehicle's exact hub diameter, eliminating spigot ring requirements. Contact [email protected] with your PCD, thread pitch, and seat type for production confirmation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the 0441 different from other AP2 models in the 1221 lineup?
The 0441 uses a four-spoke split architecture — each of the four primary spokes bifurcates before reaching the barrel interface, creating twice the visual spoke count at the rim edge while keeping the face centre open and uncluttered. This gives the 0441 a distinct aggressive open-face look that contrasts with the denser multi-spoke profiles used in models like the 0770 or 1221.

How deep can the concave bowl be on the 0441 AP2?
The AP2 platform allows substantial concave depth — deeper than an AP1 monoblock — because the barrel section is an independent forging whose depth is set per order. Provide your desired concave measurement or reference images when you contact us, and the 1221 team will confirm achievable depth for your chosen diameter and width combination.

Can the 0441 AP2 be ordered in a stepped lip or polished barrel?
Yes. Custom barrel profiles including stepped lips, polished machined barrels, and chrome-look coatings are available on request for the AP2 platform. These are specified at the order stage — contact us with your preference and we will confirm availability and pricing.

Is the 0441 available in the AP3LX configuration as well?
Yes. The 0441 spoke design is available across AP1, AP2, AP3L, and AP3LX platforms. If you want the three-section finish flexibility and extreme concave depth of the AP3LX, contact us for that configuration. The face geometry is identical; the platform changes the barrel architecture and hardware specification.

What tyre profiles work best on the 0441 AP2 for show and stance builds?
For aggressive fitment and stance builds, a stretched tyre profile in 225 or 235 section on widths of 10J–12J is the most common 0441 AP2 specification in that application. For track-day and performance use, wider tyres at correct section width are recommended — confirm your tyre size with us when ordering to ensure barrel clearance is optimised.

Does the 20|EX fastener system affect the structural rating of the 0441 AP2?
No. The 20|EX system is the same hardware platform used across all 1221 two-piece and three-piece models, including the heaviest-duty AP3LX configurations. The reduction from a conventional 40-bolt pattern to 20 bolts is compensated by 1221's proprietary torque distribution geometry, which has been validated through FEA modelling and real-world fitment testing across the X-Series range since the platform was introduced.

Wheel Care

The 0441 AP2 APEX3.0's open spoke geometry means that the inner barrel and face-to-barrel junction are more exposed to road spray and brake dust than a denser multi-spoke design — factor this into your cleaning routine. Rinse both faces of the wheel after every drive in wet or salted conditions. Use a pH-neutral wheel cleaner applied with a soft-bristle spoke brush and a dedicated barrel brush for the inner section; avoid alkaline degreasers on Brushed Gloss and Brushed Matte finishes. For two-tone builds, seal the barrel section independently with a non-silicone wheel sealant after each wash. Torque all 20|EX fasteners to the specification provided with your order and re-check after the first 50 km following fitting or any wheel removal.
