This paper reviews design, analysis and fabrication of wheel assembly for infinity motorsports, a Formula Society of Automotive Engineers (FSAE) team of Amity University Noida, with accordance to rules and safety regulation of FSAE. Wheel assembly is the system which connects the suspensions from the chassis to the wheels; in doing so, it has multiple purposes to be fulfilled and experiences immense forces while doing so. The tests run on the previous year car provided the merits and demerits of the previously used wheel assembly. It showed the room for improvements which in turn paved the path to work for finding a more efficient material and designs. The further changes in the design were made according to the test results of Formula Bharat 2019 competition, and improvements were made for Formula Bharat 2020. The plan included various step-by-step procedure, i.e. running various tests and iterations on previous year vehicle and other research papers, checking the room for improvement, making changes in the design, doing calculations and analysis to check the result of various forces which wheel assembly faces and on the overall car in different working conditions and finally assembling all the components for performing satisfactory test runs.
