ABSTRACT:
An auxiliary wheel for use in conjunction with a conventional pneumatic tired wheel of a vehicle when the pneumatic tire carried by the rim of the conventional wheel becomes inoperative. The auxiliary wheel has a rim member with a hard rubber tire on the outer periphery thereof and is pivotally attached to a coupling member which, in turn, is attachable to the rim of the conventional wheel. The auxiliary wheel is attached to the vehicle wheel in such a manner that upon a limited rotational movement of the wheel the rim member will be moved to a position concentric with and parallel to the wheel and elevate the same to permit the vehicle to be driven without removing the inoperative tire.
