  • What You Need to Know About Mounting Radial Tires on Classic Vehicle Rims
    What You Need to Know About Mounting Radial Tires on Classic Vehicle Rims Over the past 100 years, tires, and the wheels that support them, have gone through significant changes as a result of technical innovations in design, technology and materials. No single factor affects the handling and safety of a car’s ride more than the tire and the wheel it is mounted on and how the two work together as a unit. One nagging question that has been the subject of a lot of anecdotal evidence, speculation, and even more widespread rumor is whether rims designed for Bias ply tires can handle the stresses placed on them by Radial ply tires. And the answer is - it depends. It depends on how the rim was originally designed and built as well as whether the rim has few enough cycles on it, and how it has been driven. But most importantly it depends upon the construction of the tire and how it transmits the vehicle's load to where the rubber meets the road. In this paper, we want to educate you on the facts - not the wives tales or just plain bad information - about how Bias and Radial tires differ in working with the rim to provide a safe ride. Why is there a possible rim concern between Radial and Bias Tires? The fitting of radial tires, to wheels and rims originally designed for bias tires, is an application that may result in rim durability issues. Even same-sized bias and radial tires stress a rim differently, despite their nearly identical dimensions.

ABSTRACT. Automobile have various parts which are important for good running of the vehicle. The most important safety components from a structural point of view are the road wheels. They are required to be lighter and more fascinating to the buyer all the time. This implies that it's important to perform a lot of accurate strength assessment on wheel styles. The wheel rim plays a major role in vehicle dynamics. This paper deals with the design and model of different wheel rims based on weight optimization and also structural analysis has been carried out. It has been compared with standard values by varying two different materials. In addition, from the obtained outputs of simulations and the weight optimization, we suggested Aluminium alloys as most suitable material for SUV. Model is created by using SOLIDWORKS software 2015 and structural analysis & weight optimization is done by using ANSYS WORKBENCH 16.0. 1 INTRODUCTION by considered two different materials namely Aluminum and forged steel and their relative performances have A sport or suburban utility vehicle (SUV) is similar to a been observed respectively.

    OVERVIEW Ram cab chassis and pickups can be ordered with a Trailer Tire Pressure Monitor System. (sales code XG9) The system uses tire pressure sensors mounted in the trailer tires that communicate wirelessly with a module mounted near the rear of the truck. The module communicates individual tire pressure status to the cluster and the cluster will display the tire pressure of each trailer tire in the correct trailer position on a menu screen in the EVIC. Tire locations and pressure thresholds can be programmed into the system. Audio and visual indicators alert you if any of the tires have dropped below that threshold. The system is capable of discerning up to 12 tires on up to 3 axles per configured trailer on up to 4 configurable trailers. The factory system is supplied with 4 sensors. Addition sensors can be purchased through any Ram dealer. The customer is responsible for installing the sensors into the trailer tires and programming the system. All sensor pairing and system programming is done on the radio. The system is only available with the 8.4 inch and 12 inch radios. On 2500/3500 pickup trucks, (DJ and D2) the in-cab controls, chassis wiring and TPM receiver module have been factory installed. The module is located behind the rear license plate. A kit containing all required hardware for the sensor installation is provided and can be found in the cab of the vehicle. On 3500/4500/5500 chassis cabs, (DF, DD and DP) the in-cab controls and chassis wiring have been factory installed.

Jayakumar, D.Santhosh Kumar, MarrireddyRaviteja Reddy Department of Mechanical Engineering, Saveetha School of Engineering, Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences, Chennai – 602105, Tamil Nadu, INDIA ABSTRACT The wheels of an automobile are usually made out of steel but due to the increased demand for peculiarity and enhanced outlook alloy materials are used for the wheels these days. Performance of the vehicle is enhanced as they reduce its weight, increase its fuel efficiency and give a spectacular look compared to that of normal steel wheels. But there are some factors which hinder their mass usage like, comparatively high cost and less strength compared to that of steel. Though alloy materials are strong enough if the car undergoes significant trauma the alloy rims can bend. Many researchers have been carried out based on enhancing the geometry of the beam, like slightly curved beams could employ more behavioural changes and increased stiffness and some have done research on the structure which concluded bi-directional fabrics could be more efficient and some changes can be made because of changes in cross section. In this paper, a detailed study is carried out on the various parameters, which contribute to the creation of a new composite material for alloy wheels, which include the selection of materials, failure techniques, and the manufacturing processes involved.

AC Cars, Aston Martin, Cooper Car Co., Caterham, Jensen, Lister, Lola, MG, Opel, Panther, Rolls- Royce, Rover, Saab, Shelby Mustang, Triumph, TVR and Vauxhall are some of the companies who have chosen MOTO-LITA steering wheels for their quality, enhanced driving comfort and good looks. MOTO-LITA steering wheels are designed and hand built in England by British craftsmen. The centres of Moto-Lita’s steering wheels are hewn from a sold billet of aluminium. With this in mind we’re afraid that you might have to wait a while if you order a 16” wheel and it’s not in stock. The solid cylinder of aluminum is very heavy and they don’t like picking it up and putting onto their cutting saw to make only one wheel! 16” wheels are made to order only LIGHTING Unless stated, for all of these steering wheels you will need a boss to fit it to your car.

The United States Government assumes no responsibility for the contents or use thereof. The opinions, findings, and conclusions expressed in this publication are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The crash investigation process is an inexact science which requires that physical evidence such as skid marks, vehicular damage measurements, and occupant contact points are coupled with the investigator's expert knowledge and experience of vehicle dynamics and occupant kinematics in order to determine the pre-crash, crash, and post-crash movements of involved vehicles and occupants. Because each crash is a unique sequence of events, generalized conclusions cannot be made concerning the crashworthiness performance of the involved vehicle(s) or their safety systems. ii TECHNICAL REPORT STANDARD TITLE PAGE 1.
