1221 Wheels 1771 AP3LX APEX3.0 Forged Wheels

1221 Wheels 1771 AP3LX APEX3.0 — Seventeen Spokes, Full Three-Piece Luxury Engineering

The 1771 is defined by density — seventeen spokes arranged in a tight radial pattern that fills the face from hub to lip, producing a visual mass that reads as structural authority from any approach angle. In the AP3LX three-piece configuration of the APEX3.0 edition, this spoke density is paired with the most advanced construction platform in the 1221 X-Series: three independently forged components — face, outer rim, inner barrel — assembled with the 20|EX titanium fastener system and finished with the engraved titanium centre hardware exclusive to the LX tier. Where the AP3L provides three-piece capability at controlled weight, the AP3LX adds the heavier outer barrel section and the premium hardware treatment that luxury GT and full-size SUV applications require. Built at 1221 Wheels' City of Industry, California facility, the 1771 AP3LX APEX3.0 is the specification for builds where visual authority and maximum engineering refinement must occupy the same wheel.

Need a Different Size?

Every 1221 Wheels 1771 AP3LX APEX3.0 is built to order from City of Industry, CA. In the three-piece AP3LX configuration, outer rim depth and inner barrel depth are independent dimensions — width, offset, and concave depth adjustments are made without altering the 1771 spoke face tooling and carry no minimum order requirement. If your fitment falls outside any published specification, contact [email protected] or WhatsApp at +44 748 881 8747 with your vehicle data, arch measurements, and brake system dimensions. Our team works directly with the 1221 production schedule to confirm achievable barrel and concave geometry before the order is placed. We also offer an AI Wheel Design Service for custom spoke or finish concepts developed before production begins.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Aerospace-grade 6061-T6 forged aluminium alloy — all three components independently pressed under 10,000-ton closed-die pressure
• Construction: 3-Piece forged AP3LX — 1771 spoke face (17 radial spokes), forged outer rim (LX heavy-section profile), forged inner barrel — assembled via 20|EX hardware

• Manufactured: City of Industry, CA, USA
• Lead time: Approximately 3–6 weeks from order confirmation

Three-Section Finish Architecture — LX Standard

The AP3LX configuration gives the 1771 face three independently finished surfaces: the forged spoke face, the outer rim visible between the face edge and the tyre shoulder, and the inner barrel visible on wheel removal. Each is coated as a separate component before assembly — so three-tone finishes are a manufacturing result, not a paint effect. The engraved titanium centre hardware on the AP3LX adds a fourth finish element: the hub cap carries the 1221 Wheels engraving in the titanium alloy itself, which cannot be replicated in standard steel or aluminium hardware. A Brushed Gloss Clear face with a Solid Matte Black outer rim, a polished inner barrel, and engraved titanium centre hardware produces a specification that reads as designed for the LX tier specifically. All 34 standard finishes are available per section, and custom RAL or polished treatments can be specified for any combination of the three surfaces.

Vehicle Fitment Guide — Luxury GT and Performance SUV Applications

The 1221 Wheels 1771 AP3LX APEX3.0 is specified most frequently for full-size luxury saloons, grand tourer coupés, and high-performance SUVs where the 17-spoke face fills the arch at large diameters (21"–24") and the AP3LX barrel provides the clearance required for large-diameter brake systems and wide-section tyre profiles. The heavier-section barrel and engraved titanium hardware make this the specification for builds where finish durability and long-term dimensional stability matter as much as fitment precision.

• Bentley Continental GT, GTC — all generations, wide-section tyre specification
• Rolls-Royce Ghost, Cullinan, Spectre — large-diameter luxury fitment
• Lamborghini Urus, Urus Performante — wide-body standard
• Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT, Panamera Turbo S, Taycan Turbo S

Frequently Asked Questions

What distinguishes the AP3LX from the AP3L for the 1771 face?
Both use the 17-spoke 1771 face on a three-piece forged assembly. The AP3LX uses a heavier-section outer barrel profile specifically engineered for the dimensional stability and finish durability required on luxury GT and large SUV applications. It also features engraved titanium centre hardware exclusive to the LX tier — the AP3L uses standard (non-engraved) titanium hardware. For track-modified or weight-sensitive builds, the AP3L is the lighter choice; for luxury GT, concours, and SUV applications, the AP3LX provides the appropriate engineering specification.

Can I order three different finishes across the three sections?
Yes — three-tone independent finish is standard on all AP3LX builds. The face, outer rim, and inner barrel are coated separately before assembly. Any combination from the 34 standard finishes can be specified per section. Custom RAL colours, polished lip treatments, and chrome-look barrel finishes are also available on request.

Is the engraved titanium centre hardware structural or decorative?
The engraved titanium centre hardware on the AP3LX is the same titanium alloy component used in the standard 20|EX system — the engraving is applied after the machining process and does not affect the structural properties of the hardware. It is a finish distinction exclusive to the LX tier that identifies the AP3LX specification visually when the hub cap is present.

Is the 1771 AP3LX suitable for air suspension builds on full-size SUVs?
Yes. The three-piece construction allows barrel dimensions to be specified for the additional control arm and shock absorber clearance geometry present in dropped air suspension configurations. Provide your static ride height, suspension travel data, and caliper dimensions when you contact us — our team will confirm the available offset and concave range for your fitment.

What is the weight difference between the AP3LX and AP3L at 22"?
The AP3LX is typically 0.3–0.7 kg heavier per wheel than the AP3L at the same diameter and width, due to the heavier-section outer barrel and additional hardware mass. For luxury GT and SUV applications, this is not a concern. For track-focused or high-performance sport builds where unsprung mass directly affects suspension dynamics, the AP3L or AP2 platform is more appropriate.

Does Hodoor World offer post-delivery fitment support?
Yes. Every order placed through Hodoor World includes post-delivery technical support — if any fitment clearance issue arises during installation, contact us directly and our team will liaise with the 1221 production team to resolve it. We can also recommend certified fitment partners in most major cities in the UK, EU, and UAE.

Wheel Care

All three surfaces of the 1221 Wheels 1771 AP3LX APEX3.0 — face, outer rim, and inner barrel — are finished in 1221's standard high-durability coating and should be cleaned separately as part of your regular maintenance routine. Rinse the outer rim and barrel area after every drive in salted or wet conditions, as these sections carry the highest road contamination exposure. Wash with a pH-neutral wheel cleaner and a soft-bristle brush; avoid alkaline degreasers, low-pH iron fallout removers, and abrasive compounds on Brushed finishes. For the inner barrel, use a dedicated barrel brush monthly to remove accumulated brake dust before it bonds to the coating. Apply a non-silicone wheel sealant to the outer rim and barrel after washing. Torque all 20|EX fasteners to the specification supplied with your order and re-check after the first 50 km following fitting or any wheel removal. Store wheels vertically in a cool, dry environment when off the vehicle.
