I promise you that it will fit X3 and LC (in LC you will get 114,3 bolt pattern - remeber about it!).
But promise me that you will do a lot of photos during the swap and drop it here

But the LC is a 4x100mm bolt pattern...and the X3 is a 4x114...

I'm confused.

If you have universal rims like i do you have both lug patterns on them. 4x100mm and 4x114mm.

If you are a tough guy you can try it. I suggest 96' x3 first but if this worked, than it will work for lc.
Go for it. If I were you I will want to do it.
Take the wheels too!
5 bolt accent. Echte klasse
