Elastic wheel

An elastic wheel comprising a disk, a rim supporting a tire, a pair of guides annularly fixed on the inner periphery surface of the rim, a pair of walls annularly fixed in two side areas along the wheel axial direction on the outer periphery surface of a base rim disposed on the disk or on the outer periphery surface of the disk, and rubber elastic bodies annularly interposed between the side faces of the guides and the side faces of the walls, wherein one or both of the side faces on which the rubber elastic bodies are fixed have uneven portions.
