Vehicle wheel and method for producing same

摘要

An improved vehicle wheel and method for producing the same includes a wheel rim (14) and a wheel disc (12) joined together by a weld. The wheel disc includes a generally centrally located wheel mounting portion which defines a vertical axis and an outer annular flange. The outer annular flange of the wheel disc defines an outer surface which is inverted at a predetermined angle relative to the vertical axis. The outer annular flange further includes a plurality of arches (46) formed therein.
