        abstract = {Wheels are one of the most important components of a car. Two wheels, there are two wheels used. One is an alloy wheel and the other is a spoke wheel. Most alloy materials are used to make wheel rims. The main reason for using alloys is to increase the efficiency of the two wheels by reducing the weight. The current concept is to design and modify sequential wheel rims for cars. Flanges are usually made of forged steel or alloy steel due to its excellent properties in terms of strength and affordability the material gives great strength, but increasing its strength increases the weight of the wheels. Therefore, in this study, an attempt was made to replace the steel material with a mixed matrix composite to maintain or increase strength with reduced weight. The rim of the wheel is designed keeping in mind the various loads it carries, such as forces, traction, torsion, shear, bending and sudden loads. Mathematical modeling is performed using each load analysis. Limited factor analysis is performed using ANSYS software to determine the areas of stress concentration. Content and size are modified using the same software. An experimental test of bending stress and Impact strength is to be performed to verify and verify the feasibility of the result obtained in the simulation.},
