A method for manufacturing a wheel, the method including a step of making a rim on a radially outer peripheral edge of a carrier core, during the step said carrier core, which extends from a radially inner wall forming a steering axis bore corresponding to the axis of rotation of the wheel, until the peripheral edge, is placed in a mold formed by at least one first portion and one second portion, then an injection material is injected by means of at least one injection nozzle so as to coat, by overmolding, at least partially said carrier core in order to form the rim, wherein after the injection of the injection material, the first portion of the mold and the second portion of the mold are brought closer to each other such that the injection material is compressed in the mold.
