A wheel to be used in a railway vehicle, the wheel comprising: a boss that forms an inner circumferential portion of the wheel and into which an axle of the railway vehicle is to be inserted; a rim that forms an outer circumferential portion of the wheel and includes a tread to come into contact with a top surface of a rail on which the railway vehicle travels and a flange protruding outward from the tread in a radial direction of the wheel; and a web that has an annular shape and connects the boss and the rim, wherein a center (Cr) of the rim in an axial direction that is a direction in which a central axis of the wheel extends is disposed closer to the flange in the axial direction than a center (Cb) of the boss in the axial direction is, the web has a plate-thickness center line having a linear shape when the wheel is viewed in a longitudinal section, and characterized in that when an angle that the plate-thickness center line forms with the axial direction is denoted by α, the angle being defined as being 90° in a case where the plate-thickness center line is parallel to the radial direction, and as being less than 90° in a case where the plate-thickness center line is inclined with respect to the radial direction by rotating to an opposite side to the flange around an inner end (Ab) in the radial direction of the plate-thickness center line from a position of 90°, and when a distance in the axial direction from a side face on an opposite side to the flange among both side faces (23, 24) in the axial direction of the rim to an outer end (Aa) in the radial direction of the plate-thickness center line is denoted by Pw, a length of the rim in the axial direction is denoted by Wr, and Pw/Wr is denoted by L, the wheel satisfies Formula below: L ≥ 0.0223 α − 1.363 where, the angle α is 90° or less. a boss that forms an inner circumferential portion of the wheel and into which an axle of the railway vehicle is to be inserted; a rim that forms an outer circumferential portion of the wheel and includes a tread to come into contact with a top surface of a rail on which the railway vehicle travels and a flange protruding outward from the tread in a radial direction of the wheel; and a web that has an annular shape and connects the boss and the rim, wherein a center (Cr) of the rim in an axial direction that is a direction in which a central axis of the wheel extends is disposed closer to the flange in the axial direction than a center (Cb) of the boss in the axial direction is, the web has a plate-thickness center line having a linear shape when the wheel is viewed in a longitudinal section, and characterized in that when an angle that the plate-thickness center line forms with the axial direction is denoted by α, the angle being defined as being 90° in a case where the plate-thickness center line is parallel to the radial direction, and as being less than 90° in a case where the plate-thickness center line is inclined with respect to the radial direction by rotating to an opposite side to the flange around an inner end (Ab) in the radial direction of the plate-thickness center line from a position of 90°, and when a distance in the axial direction from a side face on an opposite side to the flange among both side faces (23, 24) in the axial direction of the rim to an outer end (Aa) in the radial direction of the plate-thickness center line is denoted by Pw, a length of the rim in the axial direction is denoted by Wr, and Pw/Wr is denoted by L, the wheel satisfies Formula below: L ≥ 0.0223 α − 1.363 where, the angle α is 90° or less.
