Lightweight is one of the primary goal for the development of wheels. A new type of
automobile wheel is proposed in the present work. The wheel is divided into tread, spoke and
wheel hub. The spoke layout is designed based on the honeycomb structure by considering load
bearing performance of wheel. The analysis is carried out by the varying material of core wall of
honeycomb structure. Structural steel, aluminum alloy, carbon fiber and polyethylene are used as
a core material. The mechanical performances are analyzed and results shows that maximum stress
and deformation which can meet design requirements like strength and stiffness of the wheel
