Abstract: A wire wheel hub adapter apparatus is set forth wherein a wire wheel formed with an internally splined hub securable by a threaded hub to an associated axle is adaptable to a conventional stud pattern of an associated wheel by use of the instant invention. The invention includes a central flange formed with a hollow axially aligned support hub formed with gradually increasing wall thickness to effect enhanced strength of the hub and ensure alignment of an associated extending axle. The extending axle includes a rearwardly positioned splined shaft for receiving the associated wire wheel at a forwardly distal end formed with externally threaded portion to receive the aforenoted locking hub.
