Cantrell Motorsports is infamous around these parts
Formula 43

Cantrell Motorsports has one focus when it comes to bringing on new brands; world class quality. If it doesn't meet our standards of what we would put on our own vehicles, we won't put it on yours.

Formula 43 Wheels exceeds this standard in more ways than one. Time and time again our track oriented customers have proven this is the go to wheel if you want the best durability and safety for your car. With Aerospace technology and Military grade components, quality meets styling and the outcome is a Formula 43 wheel.

We offer a full range of models and sizing on our website, if you don't see what you're looking for just shoot us a call.

Here's a customer of ours commenting on how he felt about them:
"I came across these wheels by way of my local shop, Cantrell Motorsports, who has been using these wheels on customer cars for a while now. I had been scouring the market looking for the "right" wheel for my application. Basically, I wanted a lightweight track wheel that would stand up to abuse and be a good track application. I looked at everything out there and feel there are good options across a large price range. On one end you have BBS 3 piece wheels for outlandish money and on the other hand you have the OZ wheels on tirerack for much less.

After hearing the horror stories with the Tech-1 wheel that Forged Alloys was selling, I decided to drill a bit deeper into the options I had. I've had track wheels in the past and certainly understand the use scenario and what I was looking for developed a bit.

My evolving criteria:
1. A lightweight 18" wheel with CL application (narrowed to about 5-6 choices)
2. A cost effective solution for the track (narrowed to about 3-4 choices)
3. A quality design team that stands behind their product and offered great customer service (narrowed to 2-3 choices)
4. A build time in less than 6 weeks (narrowed to 2)
5. I ultimately decided a 3 piece wheel would be a better application for me for vatrious reasons (ease of repair & color options) which narrowed the field down to just one manufacturer - Formula 43.

In the end, I got exactly the wheel I wanted in a reasonable time from a great company - so I'm a very happy camper!

Highlights: The wheels are light! I really like 3 piece wheels, but don't like exposed hardware, so it's nice that these wheels have hardware on the inside of the wheels. Formula 43 offers a bead blast option on the interior of the rim to prevent slipping of the tire...it seemed to work, after 2 days of tough usage, they were in the same spots, so the weighting was still on the money.

I really think you can't go wrong with the rims these guys are producing, even being a young company, they will stand behind their products and will certainly be seen around more as others discover them. I'm proud to have my car gracing their brochure!"
