Abstract
At least one bimetal tab is disposed in a groove between a wheel disc formed from a first metal and a wheel rim formed from a second metal which is different from the first metal. The bimetal tab is formed by roll bonding a layer of the first metal to a layer of the second metal. The first metal layer of the bimetal tab is adjacent to the wheel disc while the second metal layer of the tab is adjacent to the wheel disc. A spot weld which extends through the bimetal tab secures the wheel disc to the wheel rim.
