Abstract: A two-piece rim and tire assembly. The tire is held to the rim by fasteners extending through flanges integral with the tire main body and then into the rim. Further, the outer edges of the rim clinchably mount the tire main body thereto. A flexible overhanging portion extends outwardly of the tire main body minimizing dirt and mud accumulation on the tire and rim. A bearing is held within the rim by a ring.

Abstract: A solid elastomeric tire is provided with an inwardly extending circular flange which is received in a V-shaped groove formed by and between inner faces of the two wheel disks of a disk wheel assembly. The disks are welded together around a circle radially inward from the tire flange, and are welded to a wheel hub cylinder having bushings therein. The tire flange in the groove resists the rolling of the tire off the rim in response to axially directed force on the tire.
