The present invention concerns a twin wheel set including twin wheel, intermediate ring and fixing means for coaxial mounting of the twin wheel set on a wheel of a vehicle, where twin wheel as well as vehicle wheel include a rim, preferably a steel rim with tyre. The new feature of the invention consist of the fixing means at least comprising an adjustable clamping ring, preferably a steel ring, for bearing on the rim periphery of the twin wheel at the side facing away from the vehicle wheel, preferably against at least one face on the inner peripheral area of the rim on a twin wheel. By using the outer side of the rim for contact with the adjustable clamping ring, there is achieved an independency of welding means thereon to which clamping devices are to be fixed on the twin wheel itself. By using a clamping ring which is not fixed to the twin wheel, a kind of universal clamping ring can be applied which possibly may be adapted to different sizes of twin wheels, and which therefore implies less need for keeping may different articles in stock at the producer.
