It may seem obvious, but a wheel is comprised of a hub, spokes and rim. Sometimes these components will be one piece, sometimes two or three. The hub is the center portion of the wheel and is what attaches the wheel to the suspension. The spokes radiate out from the hub and attach to the rim. The rim is the outer part of the wheel that holds the tire. While many people refer to wheels as "rims," this is technically incorrect. We'll discuss several ways that wheels are manufactured below."

OK, you "win", where do I send your cookie?


I don't always agree with vendors, even TireRack that I have used for over 20 years.
But you quoted an online place, so I'll send you a cookie.
