ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A structure is disclosed for a spoked wheel member suitable for use as an automotive steering wheel, gear, or the like comprising a hub, rim and interconnecting arms. Fibers of high strength are grouped together in parallel fashion as a reinforcement along the arms and are anchored in the hub and in the rim. A resinous binder of desired shear strength binds the fiber matrix together forming a fiber reinforced resinous structure. In a preferred form, the fibers are wrapped around the hub, extend out a first arm, over the rim to an adjacent second arm and then back to the hub. A substantial number of fiber wrappings are grouped together to reinforce one segment of the structure, which includes half of the first and second arms. Thereafter a similar process is used to form the next segment of the structure which will include the other half of the second arm, half of a third arm, and the interconnecting hub and rim portions. The remaining sections are formed in similar manner and a peripheral wrapping of the rim is provided to bind the rim portions of the segments together.
