It appears that SEMA Spec 5-1A has been replaced by SAE J2530.
(I talked to someone from SEMA) So, I joined SAE and downloaded the specifications for Aftermarket Wheels....ouch!!!! $45.00 for 9 .pdf pages (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I'm sure someone will tell me that I could have found this for free knowing my luck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) It does have all the information on what should be stamped/marked on the wheels*, test and procedures need to be performed as well as the engineering formulas to figure out the Bending Moment and the Radial Load, interesting stuff........... *manufactures name or trademark, part number, country, wheel load rating and something new I've never seen on a wheel=largest diameter tire at it's maximum rated inflation |

Did you need the spec for the water-cooled rims or for the 3-piece heads? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

oh yea...thanks to Tim as well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
that was indeed the correct spec, I just was not too sure due to the description and from the SAMA spec that Ken mentioned that the PCA wants rims to be built to. I just wish the information from SAE was cheaper, tons of stuff I'd like to download and read...... |

Couldn't get my boss to stump up for the costs. I was looking for ratings on automotive wires: current vs gage & strand counts, also fuse ratings vs circuit current. |
