iForged Rims 3-Piece?

This has probably been answered but I did a search and came up empty handed.

Are all iForged rims 3-piece?

I have 19x8.5 and 19x10 iForged Senekas.

Thanks

iforged has 1, 2, and 3 piece wheels. I thought Senekas were 2 piece, I'm probable wrong.

I believe if you're fronts are 8.5" then they are 3 piece wheels. If your fronts are 8.0" then your wheels are two piece.

Chrome lip is a true 2 piece. Polished lip is welded 2 piece. Senekas are 2 piece, hopefully you have the chrome lip

My fronts are 8.5 and are 2 piece

Mine are also 8.5 as well.
Why do they weld the polished lipped wheels? I would think that it would be weaker connection?
