ABSTRACT:
A one-piece metal wheel, preferably of aluminum, for example a wheel suitable for use on automotive and truck vehicles, is formed by (1) extruding a straight section comprising a first portion in the configuration of the wheel rim and an integral straight web portion, (2) cutting this extrusion to the appropriate length and forming it into a circular shape, (3) joining, for example by pressure welding the ends of the extrusion to form a continuous loop, and (4) deforming the web portion of the extrusion to form the center or disc of the wheel.
