End faces of spokes commonly crack and by using method of invention the hub can be salvaged by removing from outer end of each spoke, a generally U-sectioned portion of end face and adjacent portions of spoke to form a pair of spaced shoulders on side portions of spoke. An annular rim or band is fitted on shoulders so that cylindrical inner face of band is adjacent generally axial edges of shoulders, and annular end face of band is adjacent radial edges of shoulders and partially annular edges of outer faces of spokes. Band is welded to ends of spokes to provide additional support for tire bearing rim.
