What makes a perfect Formula Ford 1600 wheel?
Our Rolled Rim
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
Our Wheel Centre, made with High Strength Steel is where the Cornering Load is most concentrated with the 4stud fixing positions playing the Most 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.
