PODIUM / BEHIND THE WHEEL

More than
a good look.

A closer look at the testing behind FF6 and FF6-TA. See the equipment in action, understand what each test checks, and read the results for the wheel specifications below.

INSIDE THE TEST ROOM

Put through its paces.

Radial testing and a closer look at the cornering-test setup, filmed at the factory.

FF6-TA 18×11 +38 test footage. Silent, edited excerpts illustrate the test process; the written reports below record the results.

THREE DIFFERENT LOADS

What are you
looking at?

Each test loads the wheel in a different way.
Together, they give a more complete picture of the tested sample.

01 / CORNERING FATIGUE

Load from the side.

A repeated bending load acts on the wheel to evaluate its resistance to fatigue under the test’s cornering conditions.

02 / RADIAL FATIGUE

Load through the tire.

The wheel-and-tire assembly runs against a drum under load. Repeated cycles evaluate durability under the specified rolling test conditions.

03 / IMPACT

A sudden hit.

A controlled impact checks the wheel’s response to the load, angle and impact location specified in the report.

READ THE RESULTS

The details.
On the record.

The supplied sheets mark the three test categories “OK”
and their overall conclusions “Qualified.”
