Abstract: Described herein is a method for laser welding of a rim to the disk of a wheel for motor vehicles, in which the rim envisages a circumferential wall, with an internal surface, and the disk envisages a circumferential portion, which is in contact with said internal surface of the rim and has a circumferential end edge, said method comprising the operation of focusing the laser beam in the area of contact between the circumferential portion of the disk and the internal surface of the rim, in a position corresponding to the circumferential end edge of the disk.
