0221 AP3L SPORT3.0
1221 is a brand focused on seamlessly integrating timeless design with innovative technical details and superior manufacturing. Our styles and wheel lines provide a look that will be fresh today and relevant for years to come, along with quality that will last. We have created styles which use proportion and meticulous detailing to create wheels with an elegant, yet technical look that perfectly complement today's most sought-after vehicles. These designs are carefully crafted and assembled using the highest quality materials, components, and standards. We offer features never seen in the wheel industry which remove excess weight and create real world performance benefits
The 1221 AP3L configuration uses a floating spoke design with traditional 3-piece construction. It includes an xConcave spoke profile which provides the most visual depth of any of our 3-piece offerings. It uses a forging which allows the spokes to be extended beyond the assembly flange all the way to the outer lip, making the wheel appear larger. Each AP3L set includes your choice of fully exposed or completely hidden hardware and most styles work with our 20|20 hardware option as well. The AP3L is available in our V.I.P., Apex, and Sport editions and is constructed from 6061-T6 forged aluminum.

The 20|EX configuration features a new 20 bolt design (instead of 40 bolts) that is exclusive to X-Series Wheels. Normally, modular wheels are constructed using 40 fasteners, but the 20|EX configuration eliminates half of the bolts and replaces them with lightener pockets. This configuration maximizes the weight savings potential of the wheel while maintaining the necessary strength for both our class 1 and heavier class 2 applications like SUV's. This has been verified with our in house FEA and physical testing. 20|EX represents our highest level of assembly technology.
Titanium is a true performance metal. Boasting lightweight properties with high levels of strength, titanium offers substantial real-world benefits in almost every application. This metal has the highest strength to weight ratio of almost any other metal, making it perfect for a variety of automotive uses, including modular wheels. Titanium is also able to withstand high levels of heat without losing any of its strength. All of these factors make it an ideal upgrade. As such, 1221 offers a titanium assembly hardware option on all 1221 wheels. Titanium fasteners feature our laser etched 1221 logo and shave 41% of the weight versus a standard fastener.
1221 brings the latest in technology to the design and engineering of our wheels. With over a decade of FEA experience, we're able to utilize FEA to improve our designs by decreasing weight through material reduction, while ensuring styles have adequate strength and durability. **Click the all blue wheel image on the right to see an FEA simulation animation.**
