Material Notes

WhyMagnesium

REX-03M takes the REX-03 spoke architecture and forges it in magnesium. Approximately 25% less mass than the aluminium equivalent at the same specification - for drivers who want the last increment of unsprung mass reduction and accept the material trade-offs.

Magnesium forged wheels are not for every build. They are lighter than aluminium - approximately 20-30% less mass at equivalent specification - but they demand a different ownership conversation.

Magnesium is more susceptible to corrosion than aluminium. The protective coating is critical. Stone chips, kerb damage and harsh cleaning chemicals can compromise the surface and expose the substrate. Road salt accelerates the process.

Magnesium wheels are also more expensive to produce and insure. The forging process is more demanding. Repair is more limited. Most wheel repair shops will not touch a magnesium wheel.

For the right owner - a driver who wants the lightest possible forged wheel, keeps the car clean, inspects the wheels regularly and understands the material - REX-03M is the answer. For a daily driver parked outdoors, the aluminium REX-03 is usually the better long-term choice.

Engineering note
ρmagnesium ≈ 1,740–1,830 kg/m³
ρaluminium 6061-T6 ≈ 2,700 kg/m³
Mass reduction ≈ 25–35% at equivalent geometry, before machining differences.

Density comparison. Final mass also depends on width, offset, brake clearance and load target.

Design Philosophy

REX-03MDesign Direction

The REX-03 wide-spoke architecture in a lighter material. Deeper concavity potential than the aluminium version, same per-vehicle fitment, higher price, more care required.

wide-spoke magnesium architecture

The face profile, brake clearance and machining depth are specified to the platform and load target.

Fitment locked before machining

Every magnesium wheel is specified to the car's load target, brake package and tyre size. The material changes the mass; the fitment process does not change.

Driver Notes

REX-03MBest Fit

Best for grand tourers, luxury sedans, clean coupes, and owners who want magnesium performance with a more elegant look.

01

Lower unsprung mass.
Lower wheel mass can improve steering response, braking feel, acceleration, and suspension control.

02

Performance-specific material.
AZ80A-T6 magnesium is used where the build priority is weight reduction with real structural review.

03

Custom fitment.
Width, offset, bolt pattern, center bore, brake clearance, and finish are confirmed before production.

Forging Profile Option

EnhancedConcavity

LFI concave profiles are built around wheel width, offset, diameter, brake clearance, and forging depth. The goal is to push the face as deep as the car allows, without compromising fitment, caliper clearance, or structural integrity.

Three concavity levelsOffset-sensitive designCost option

Maximum Concave Face

The Maximum Concave Face option is available for selected LFI magnesium forged wheel designs. Depending on wheel width and offset, the face profile can be tuned from mild concave to a deeper spoke drop.

Wider wheels and lower offsets generally allow stronger concavity. Final availability depends on the vehicle body, suspension, brake package, and selected forging blank.

Three Concavity Levels

Concavity is not selected by diameter alone. The final face depth is calculated from the full fitment package.

The exact concavity level is confirmed during fitment planning.

Anti-Slip Knurled Beads

Knurled bead seats can help reduce tire movement during hard acceleration, braking, cornering, drag launches, and sticky tire use.

Annular Reinforcement Ribs

Reinforcement ribs can improve stiffness, stress distribution, and durability where the vehicle load, tire package, or road conditions call for extra reserve.

Warranty

2-Year StructuralWarranty

LFI REX-03M Magnesium Forged Wheel is covered for 2 years upon delivery or collection against defects in structural integrity, subject to LFI's full warranty terms and exclusions.

What it covers

The warranty covers defects in structural integrity for 2 years upon delivery or collection, subject to LFI's full warranty terms.

What to check

Coverage is limited by the full warranty terms, including exclusions for impact damage, misuse, improper tyre use, road hazards, unauthorised repair, refinishing, heating, bending, cutting or welding.

Magnesium-specific: Magnesium requires more attentive care than aluminium. Stone chips, kerb contact, harsh chemicals and road-salt exposure can compromise the protective coating. Regular inspection and prompt touch-up of surface damage are recommended. Damage from neglect, impact or improper cleaning is not covered.

Product Questions

REX-03MQuestions

Is REX-03M built to order?

Yes. Every REX-03M set is forged and machined around your specific vehicle: diameter, width, offset, brake clearance, load target, bolt pattern, centre bore, concavity and finish are all confirmed before production.

How much does REX-03M weigh?

See the approximate weight table above. Final weight depends on your width, offset, bolt pattern, brake clearance, load target and finish. Verified weight is confirmed on the finished wheel.

Can REX-03M clear big brakes without spacers?

Yes, when the final specification is drawn around the actual brake package. LFI checks spoke shape, backpad, barrel clearance, balancing-weight clearance, centre profile and offset before production.

Can REX-03M be used for track or fast-road driving?

Yes. LFI reviews vehicle mass, tyre package, braking load, road surface, load rating, bead-seat needs and optional reinforcement details before confirming a fast-road or track specification.

What information does LFI need to start a REX-03M build?

Share the vehicle model, current wheel and tyre sizes, brake package, ride height, intended use, stance direction, finish direction and any load or track-use requirements.

Can I choose custom finishes?

Yes. LFI can quote gloss, satin, brushed, polished, black, silver, bronze, body-colour and selected custom finishes depending on the final specification and production route.

Does REX-03M include warranty?

Yes. REX-03M is covered for 2 years upon delivery or collection against defects in structural integrity, subject to LFI's full warranty terms and exclusions.
