ABSTRACT:
A vehicle wheel, on which a tire is mounted, comprised of two rim portions fixed together by fastening bolts is provided with a means to prevent disassembly of the rim portions while the tire mounted thereon remains inflated. In the preferred embodiment, a cover plate affixed to one of the rim members by a hinge is positionable over the heads of the fastening bolts and retained thereon by an elongated pin having an enlarged head, the pin extending through an aperture in the rim. The locking pin is urged to this locking position while the tire is inflated by pressure in the tire.
