Vossen LC3-05 (3-Piece) - Three-Piece Forged Wheel for Modern and Electric Platforms

Series 21: Three-Piece Forged Engineering Confirmed for BMW iX3 and EV Applications

Vossen LC3-05 (3-Piece) is a three-piece forged wheel from the LC3 Series documented on the BMW iX3 — one of the clearest demonstrations that Vossen's Series 21 engineering is calibrated for contemporary electric and hybrid platforms alongside traditional combustion-powered vehicles. The additional unsprung mass sensitivity of electric cars, where rotating weight affects both handling feedback and efficiency calculations, makes the material and size decisions in a three-piece forged wheel especially consequential. The LC3-05 (3-Piece) addresses this across the 18- to 24-inch range with widths extending to 16 inches.

Vossen LC3-05 (3-Piece) Width Flexibility and Fitment Precision

The three-piece format's mechanical advantage for fitment engineers is the ability to adjust lip width independently from the centre forging. A single LC3-05 centre design can be combined with narrower lip sections for front axle fitments and wider sections for the rear — without machining a second centre forging. This matters for manufacturers of EVs and performance saloons where front and rear tyre width requirements diverge significantly. Vossen confirms offset and centre bore from more than 100 platform-specific measurements before any component enters production.

Vossen LC3-05 (3-Piece) Documented Platform: BMW iX3 and Performance SUVs

The BMW iX3 Garage Build is an on-record LC3-05 (3-Piece) fitment, confirming suitability for EV-specific bolt patterns, centre bores, and brake clearance requirements. Beyond the iX3, the 18- to 24-inch range and wide lip options to 16 inches position the LC3-05 (3-Piece) for SUVs, estates, performance saloons, and muscle cars requiring substantial rear lip depth. Contact Hodoor Wheels with your vehicle make, model, and target tyre dimensions for a confirmed specification before ordering.
