The rolling assembly has a rotation axis and comprises a rim having two rim seats that is axially outwardly extended by rim flanges, one adapter and a tire having two beads. The adapter provides the connection between one of the beads and the rim and comprises an axially inner end that is adapted to be mounted on one of the rim seats, an axially outer end that is adapted to receive one of the beads and an adapter body connecting the axially inner end and the axially outer end as to form a single piece. The two rim seats of the rim have different diameters with a gap D. The adapter is mounted onto the rim seat having smaller diameter. The rim seat of the rim has a smaller diameter positions on a side intended to be inside when the rolling assembly being mounted onto a vehicle.

A wheel rim for a vehicle including a first rim portion including a first wheel flange, a second rim portion threadedly connected to the first rim portion, and a second wheel flange held on the first rim portion.

Adapter for a rolling assembly intended to be fitted to a passenger vehicle, with improved mountability and a high capacity for absorbing large deformations in the event of pinch shocks. The adapter has reinforcing element (15) of the axially outer end (9) wholly situated axially on the outside of bearing face (21) and radially on the outside of adapter seat (18), and a main reinforcement (17) having a radial superposition of at least two layers of reinforcers, the reinforcers being mutually parallel within one and the same layer and crossed with one another from one layer to the next. Each of the layers of main reinforcement (17) comprises reinforcers which make, with a circumferential direction (XX) of the tire, an angle at least equal to 30, and coated with a polymer material having an elastic modulus at 10% elongation at most equal to 70 MPa.

A wheel assembly includes a wheel having an outer rim and a hub. A first coupling is applied to the hub. A non-return valve is housed in the first coupling, and a second fitting is applied separably between the hub and the outer rim to connect the outlet of the hub hole with the channel hole.

A beadlock to secure a tire to a wheel. The beadlock comprises a first grip element and a second grip element. The first grip element is welded to the outer rim of a wheel. A bead of the tire is positioned over the first grip element. The second grip element has a plurality of rib elements angularly spaced around its periphery. The second grip element is secured to the first grip element such that the ribs grip the bead to hold it in place and secure the tire to the wheel.

An apparatus and methods are provided for a bead-locking wheel for mechanically coupling a tire to a wheel rim of an off-road vehicle. The bead-locking wheel includes a barrel for mounting the tire and a bead lock face for fastening the barrel and tire to a wheel hub of the vehicle. The bead lock face is fastened to a shoulder disposed around an outboard end of the barrel. The shoulder and an outboard flange of the barrel cooperate with a periphery of the bead lock face to mechanically retain an outboard bead of the tire. Mechanically retaining the outboard bead facilitates a relatively low inflation pressure within the tire to accommodate off-road conditions and high tractive forces. The bead lock face maximizes a positive offset and backspacing of the bead-locking wheel to accommodate a relatively wide hub and spindle assembly while maintaining an advantageous steering geometry and track width.

A system is disclosed. The system includes an adapter member and a safety member. The adapter member includes a fill valve, an internal passageway and a boss member positioned within a multi-piece wheel. The safety member is removably connected to the adapter member, and covers nuts which removably connect a first piece of the multi-piece wheel to a second piece of the multi-piece wheel.
