Another Solidworks model from my digital archives, this is an example model I made while I was a TA for an Engineering CAD course that I used for instructing my students.
The purpose of the assignment was to design a wheel rim that would interface with a specified 5-bolt hub on a provided assembly and with a provided tire model. Students were given dimensions for the bolt pattern and cylindrical rim. The webbing/spoke design was left up to the students. This is one of the two creative designs webbing/spoke designs I made to demonstrate this to the students.
This model was inspired by the magnum wheels on 60s Mustangs with a dash of 2010s "edgy" thrown in. The lighting in the renders was inspired by the Fast and the Furious franchise. I found the 5 reverse arc spokes reminded me of the blades on a Bat'leth (I'm a Star Trek fan), so I debossed the trefoil symbol of the Klingon Empire into the 5 main spokes for added visual detail.
I don't have SolidWorks access anymore, so this model has been translated through Fusion360 to create this STL. I think it made it through this process unscathed, but if there are any issues please let me know. I did not include the disc brake hub model as it is not mine to share.
I hope you enjoy this model. If you do make it, please post pictures, I'd love to see it!
