The axle "hangs" from the top rim via the top spokes. The rim
fromfrom the top sidewall of the tire.
No. The bead hangs from the top sidewall. The rim is supported
below by the bead.
Do you mean the rim/wheel is pushed up from below by the bead,
Yes, as in my previous message in this thread:
bead.
or that a
rim
on the top of the wheel that traps the bead is pushed up by the
Thetension
latter is, IMO, the same as hanging from the bead which is hangingfrom
the
sidewall.
The bead is not trapped in the sense that, if it weren't for the
in the bead, you could pull any piece of it radially outward, awayfrom
the center of the circle formed by the bead.rear
The bead's position is constrained by the hub in the following sense:
Viewing a rear wheel a position behind the car, directly behind the
wheel you are looking at: The rim is shaped so that the right beadcan't
slide rightward off the rim, and the rim is shaped so that the leftbead
can't slide leftward off the rim.<https://carnot.physics.buffalo.edu/archives/2007/11_2007/msg00034.html>
Look at the bead seat in the diagram

referenced by John Denker in the message (in this thread) at
wheel--
Seems to me that an answer to this is to carefully look at a car
doesthe
anyone have one available or can you get down to a HS auto shop? IS
bead of a mounted tire trapped or not (I'm thinking not). If nottrapped,
then I can't see how the wheel can hang from the bead. If it istrapped,
that is certainly a possibility._______________________________________________
