2. Wheel sizing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_sizing

   The centerbore of a wheel is the hole in the center of the wheel that centers it over the mounting hub of the car. Some factory wheels have a centerbore that matches exactly with the hub to reduce vibration by keeping the wheel centered. Wheels with the correct centerbore for the car they will be mounted on are known as hubcentric.

3. Engineering drawing abbreviations and symbols - Wikipedia

   The Pitch Circle Diameter (PCD) is the diameter of that circle that passes through the center of all the bolt holes or wheel bolts or wheel rim holes or studs. The best example is Flanges, there are multiple holes in the Flanges, the circle through the center of these holes is known as the pitch circle, and the diameter of this circle is known ...

4. Centerlock wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centerlock_wheel

   A modern centerlock hub on a McLaren MP4/14 Formula One car. Most modern centerlock wheels are fastened to the hub by a single large hex nut. [7] A hollow, tapered shaft centers the wheel on the hub. Torque is transmitted by pins and matching holes at the hub-wheel interface.

5. Circle of forces - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_forces

   A tire can generate horizontal force where it meets the road surface by the mechanism of slip. That force is represented in the diagram by the vector F. Note that in this example, F is perpendicular to the plane of the tire. That is because the tire is rolling freely, with no torque applied to it by the vehicle's brakes or drive train. However ...

6. Rim (wheel) - Wikipedia

   Cutaway diagram of a rim and tire from an ATV Cross section of a bicycle rim A wooden bicycle rim with tubular tire. The rim is the "outer edge of a wheel, holding the tire". [1] It makes up the outer circular design of the wheel on which the inside edge of the tire is mounted on vehicles such as automobiles. [2] For example, on a bicycle wheel ...

7. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

   Tire forces are divided into three axes: radial, lateral, and tangential (or fore-aft). The radial axis runs from the tire center toward the tread, and is the vertical axis running from the roadway through the tire center toward the vehicle. This axis supports the vehicle's weight. The lateral axis runs sideways across the tread.

9. Tire bead - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_bead

   Tire bead is the term for the edge of a tire that sits on the rim. Wheels for automobiles, bicycles, etc. are made with a small slot or groove into which the tire bead sits. When the tire is properly inflated, the air pressure within the tire keeps the bead in this groove. Reducing tire air pressure is a frequent practice among off-road vehicle ...
