Brief History

Since way back in 1983, I have been responsible for the production of Formula Ford 1600 Wheels. In 2021, I came out of retirement, formed the new Company Surepart Rim & Wheel Ltd and made a substantial investment in New Top Class Wheel Production Tooling and by bringing together a small team of specialists we are now well underway in using my knowledge and experience to fulfil a lifetime ambition –  producing The Ultimate FF1600 Wheel which brings Accuracy beyond anything else in the market.

TECHNICAL

Our Rim Profile conforms to International Standards meaning it provides the correct conditions for easy tyre fitting with the bead retention humps (H2) sized to ensure the correct degree of retention. So nice to see a tyre being fitted with no undue strain to the bead area followed by the reassuring “pop” as each bead passes over the retention hump. May 2022 see’s the introduction of our Revised Rim Profile which provides New – Free Space Inboard of the Brake Caliper.

Our Wheel Centre, made with High Strength Steel is where the Cornering Load is most concentrated with the 4stud fixing positions playing an important role. We know how it’s vital to ensure the wheel centre design provides the largest possible contact area between the nose of the wheel nut and the conical seating in the wheel centre. 

No compromise with Our Wheels, when tightened correctly, these two conical surfaces provide a vital and very necessary level of tightened torque retention.

Compared to other wheel manufacturers who rely on a Single Weld, at Surepart we weld both sides of the joint between the rim and the centre. We do this to Double the Area for cornering load to pass from the tyre, through the rim to the wheel centre. Our Double Welding is the best way to prevent cornering fatigue from stressing (cracking) the material where the wheel rim is welded to the wheel centre. At Surepart we’re the only FF1600 wheel manufacturer who is Welding Both Sides of the Joint.
