Abstract:
The invention refers to a wheel (10) for a vehicle (44), the wheel (10) being rotatable around a rotation axis (12) and comprising: a seating space (14) for a brake disk (30) extending around the rotation axis (12); a wheel rim (16) having a rim well (18), the wheel rim (16) extending around the seating space (14) and the rotation axis (12), wherein the rim well (18) protrudes from the wheel rim (16) towards the rotation axis (12); and at least one spoke (20) being connected to the wheel rim (16), the at least one spoke (20) being arranged at an outward side (22) of the wheel (10) and extending at least in part radially to the rotation axis (12); wherein, along the rotation axis (12), the seating space (14) is arranged closer to the outward side (22) than the rim well (18). The invention improves the air flow in the vicinity of the wheel (10) to reduce aerodynamic drag and lifting forces on the vehicle (44).
