TS ISO 3911
Wheels and rims for pneumatic tyres - Vocabulary, designation and marking
This International Standard presents a vocabulary of
terms related to, and systems for the designation
and marking of, wheels and rims intended for use
with pneumatic tyres. The intention is to define
fundamental wheel and rim terms rather than provide
a comprehensive tabulation of all wheel design
features. Also specified are the content, location and
minimum size of the wheel and rim marking, with the
purpose of establishing, on a worldwide basis, a
uniform identification system for wheels and rims.
NOTE 1 In addition to terms in English and French (two
of the three official ISO languages), this International
Standard gives the equivalent terms in German; these are
published under the responsibility of the member bodies
for Germany (DIN). However, only the terms and
definitions given in the official languages can be
considered as ISO terms and definitions.

About This Item
TS ISO 3911 is a vocabulary standard for wheels and rims intended for use with pneumatic tyres, covering the terms used to describe them, their designation systems, and the rules for marking. In automotive and wheel/rim engineering practice, it establishes a common naming framework; it is not meant to be a comprehensive catalogue of every design feature of a wheel assembly.
Why wheel and rim terminology matters
In general technical use, the wheel is the load-carrying rotating component, while the rim is the part that supports and retains the pneumatic tyre bead. That distinction matters for sizing, fitment, component identification and maintenance. Although wheel constructions may differ in hub form, flange geometry, bead-seat detail and other features, the standard focuses on giving this field a shared language.
Designation and marking in practical use
The standard also addresses the content, location and minimum size of wheel and rim marking. In practical terms, such marking helps users identify products correctly, match components and manage inventory. The purpose of TS ISO 3911 is to support a uniform identification system for wheels and rims on a worldwide basis.
