ABSTRACT:
A wire spoke, non-suspension type, automotive wheel in which the spokes are operably untensioned prior to vehicle loads being placed upon the wheel. An outer tubeless tire rim with a drop center is mounted to a wheel center which includes a substantially thick and solid felly connected to a concentrically positioned hub. Wire spokes extend radially outward from the hub in circumferential array and have tenons or feet on inner ends thereof which are anchored within recesses at front and rear ends of the hub. Radially outer ends of the spokes are plain terminations welded in the shape of a plug anchor within circumferentially spaced bores in the felly to secure the spokes and permit wheel formations which exhibit the classic beauty and elegance of a suspension wire spoke wheel, combined with durability, strength and ease of construction.
