See full text

A method for fabricating a vehicle wheel having a wheel rim mechanically rolled onto a wheel disc. The wheel disc includes at least one continuous circumferential bead or groove. During the rolling operation a complementary groove or bead is formed in the wheel rim. The bead is received by the groove to mechanically secure to the wheel rim to the wheel disc. A resilient material including an adhesive is disposed between the wheel disc and the wheel rim. The adhesive bonds the wheel rim to the wheel disc while the resilient material forms air-tight seal therebetween.
