A brake disc and a wheel having circumferentially spaced mounting seats are secured by threaded studs to a radially extending flange of a hub to form a wheel assembly in which pressure-receiving portions of the wheel assembly are provided opposite the wheel mounting seats and a recess is provided between each pressure-receiving portion and a cylindrical portion of brake disc to permit deflection of pressure-receiving portions as hub nuts are tightened on the threaded studs.
