ABSTRACT:
A fiber-reinforced composite vehicle wheel that comprises an annular rim for receiving a vehicle tire and a central disc internally spanning the rim for mounting the rim and tire on a vehicle. Mounting openings are formed in the wheel disc in an array that surrounds the wheel axis of rotation, and are received in assembly with a vehicle over mounting studs that project from a mounting plate. Mounting nuts are threaded onto the studs and seated against opposing axially-oriented conical surfaces of the wheel disc surrounding each mounting opening for clamping the wheel firmly against the mounting plate. A layer of antiseize lubricant is located on the disc seating surfaces surrounding the mounting openings prior to assembly of the fastener nuts.
