Abstract
A vehicle wheel for dual mounting of inner and outer tire carrying rims having a radially inwardly projecting component using a spacer or separating means. The spacer may be conventional or may be one of the spacer embodiments disclosed herein. The wheel felloe portions have a concave and axially extending pocket therein housing the axially projecting component of a fastening assembly for locking the rims and spacer on the wheel. The axially inner end of the pocket terminates at a radially directed surface providing a mounting location for the fastening assembly axial component and intersecting a radially inclined felloe surface for seating the inner rim on the wheel. The axially outer end of the pocket has spaced-apart axially projecting wing portions for seating the outer rim on the wheel. The novel spacer embodiments are non-compressible and precisely located relative to a felloe portion pocket by engagement with a fastening assembly axial component. The novel tire carrying rims have radially inwardly projecting components adapted for doweled and tenoned engagement with a spacer embodiment carried by a fastening assembly axial component.
