Abstract

See full text

A motor vehicle wheel rim assembly is provided which enables use of a wheel rim, having a fixed predetermined internal bore, with various wheel hubs having centering bodies of different external diameters. An insert ring is received within the internal bore of the wheel rim. The insert ring, in turn, has an internal diameter which is configured to closely fit the centering body of the wheel hub of a particular motor vehicle. A spring retaining ring is received within an annular groove within the wheel rim, once the insert ring is in position, to prevent substantial axial movement of the insert ring.
