Wagon tires
The earliest Wagon tires were hoops of metal placed around wagon wheels. The
Wagon tire was heated in a forge, placed on the wheel & quenched, causing the
metal to shrink, which drew the rim against the spokes & provided stiffness to
the wheel. This work was done by a wheelwright, a craftsman who specialized in
making wagon wheels..
