-11- A safety wheel is provided in which a safety tire of solid rubber is arranged to be supported adjacent the pneumatic tire of a vehicle. The safety tire has an outer diameter which is less than an outer diameter of the pneumatic tire and is therefore arranged to only support the vehicle thereon when the pneumatic tire is deflated. In one embodiment, the safety tire and the pneumatic tire are mounted integrally on a common wheel rim which replaces the existing wheel rim of the vehicle. In a second embodiment, the pneumatic tire is supported on the existing wheel rim of a vehicle and the safety tire is supported on an auxiliary wheel rim which attaches to the existing wheel rim by replacing the lug nuts of the existing wheel rim with extension lug nuts which are able to support the auxiliary rim thereon in addition to securing the existing wheel rim to lugs on the existing wheel hub of the vehicle.
