Fact That is Recognized.

1t is recognized, for example, that
tire economy and ease of riding i'm
prove with a decrease in the amount
of unsprung weight. The wheels are
in this category. and as the wire wheel
generally is lighter than other types
il offers an advantage in this respect.
Reducing the unSprung weight, how
ever, can be carried only To the point
where strength would begin to be
So acrificed. AS a matter of fact. there
must be what is known as n factor
of safety or Il margin of reserve
wheel strength for excessive strain.
The early types of wire wheels with
straight spOkes were Inadequate In
this respect, but with the modern
type, in which the spokes lead off at
a tangent from the rim alternately In
opposite directions, the wheel pos
sesses unusual strength and resiliency.
A point in favor of the wire wheel
is found in the fact that the tortion
strain, or driving force from hub to
rim, is transmitted by a direct pull
upon the wire spOkes. In the case
Of wood wheels, the force tends to
bend the Spokes, and as wood the
thickness Of wheel spokes cannot
bend appreciably, resilienCy IS slight
Wood spokes do not break under this
strain. Tor the reason that the spokeS
are thick enough to withstand the
tortion strain. Tho spokes Of wire
wheels, on the other hand. must be
reinforced where they pass through
the hub flange. otherwise they snap
off in use. This is 4 difficulty which
car owners experience when Wire
wheels are not of the best qua lity
and design. II is 1T once obvious that
the wood wheel proves satisfactory
because 1t offers q wide margin Of
safety. obtained. however, at The ex-
