A wheel assembly having two cylindrical bodies, each with a diameter approximately the same as the interior diameter of a tire. On the front body, are found an outer edge on one side and bolt receiving means on the opposite site and alignment holes. On the back body is found an outer edge, bolt receiving means that run across the entire length of the back body, are located on the interior of the body and are placed equidistant around the body. Each bolt receiving means aligns with a complementary bolt receiving means on the front body. The back body also has alignment pegs that fit into the alignment holes of the front body for proper alignment of the front and hack bodies. Holes on the hub, located on the front body permit placement of the tire and wheel assembly onto an axle of an automobile or other wheeled device.

1. A wheel assembly comprising: a rim that receives a tire wherein the rim includes a first half and a second half;a gasket disposed between the first and second halves wherein said gasket is configured to seal the first and second halves together;wherein the first and second halves each include a circular body and a lip extending in an outwardly radial direction away from the circular body;wherein an outer diameter of the circular body of the first half and an outer diameter of the circular body of the second half are substantially equal;wherein the first half comprises six bolt receiving means proximate an edge of the first half opposite to another edge of the first half where the lip of the first half is disposed, wherein the six bolt receiving means are spaced circumferentially equidistant throughout the interior of the cylindrical body of the first half, wherein the six bolt receiving means of the first half each include a threaded bolt receiving hole and wherein every other bolt receiving means, extending circumferentially, includes a peg receiving hole,wherein said peg receiving holes are disposed radially inward of the threaded bolt receiving holes;wherein the first half includes spokes that meet at a circular hub, the circular hub having holes for receiving fasteners to attach the wheel assembly to an axle;the second half comprises six bolt receiving means that are substantially aligned with the threaded bolt receiving holes, wherein every other of the six bolt receiving means of the second half extending circumferentially is disposed radially outward of a peg wherein said pegs extend in an inwardly axial direction and wherein each peg is configured to be received in a respective peg receiving hole of the first half;wherein the means for accepting bolts of the second half extend from the radially inner surface of the second half in an inwardly radial direction and further extend in an axial direction substantially from one edge of the second half, wherein the lip of the second half is disposed, to an edge of the second half that is positioned opposite the edge of the second half with the lip, wherein the six bolt receiving means of the second half are spaced circumferentially equidistant throughout the interior of the cylindrical body;bolts that extend through the bolt receiving means of the second half and through the threaded bolt holes of the first half and wherein a threaded end of the bolts extends away from the threaded bolt holes so that the threaded ends of the bolts is disposed between the bolt receiving means of the first half and the spokes. 2. The wheel assembly of claim 1, wherein the first half and the second half are substantially equal in size with respect to the axially extending length of each half.
