Claim 1
Independent Claim
172 words
An improved tire and wheel combination comprising a wheel assembly which is adapted to be mounted on a vehicle wheel hub, said wheel assembly including two wheel sections, said wheel sections including a plurality of registered bolt clearance holes, a tire having a tread and in contact with said wheel sections, a one piece solid unitary structure tire core received within said tire and formed from a resilient material, a plurality of registered bolt clearance holes extending through said tire and said core and in registry with registered bolt clearance holes in said wheel sections, a plurality of bolts, each bolt passing through registered bolt clearance holes in said wheel sections, said tire and said core, a nut for locking the free end of each bolt, a plurality of spaced-apart cavities being located on said core, projections extending from said tire inwardly and each projection positioned within a cavity on said core and filling said cavity whereby said projection and cavity assist in preventing relative movement between said tire and said core.
