• and
• a hub assembly rotatably joined to said rim assembly;
• wherein:
• said rim assembly is comprised of two annular outer rings, each a mirror image of the other, each said outer ring having a substantial central opening, an outer perimeter, an inner perimeter defining the central opening, a flat interior side facing the other outer ring, and an outer side, each said outer ring inner side having a plurality of slots formed therein and radially extending from the inner perimeter a predetermined distance toward the outer perimeter, said slots being positioned equidistantly about the outer ring inner side, each said outer ring interior side being joined to the interior side of the other outer ring, said slots of one outer ring being aligned with the slots of the other outer ring;
• said hub assembly is comprised of:
• two inner rings, each a mirror image of the other, each said inner ring having an outer perimeter, an inner perimeter, an interior side facing the other inner ring, and an outer side, each interior side having an annular groove formed therein adjacent the outer perimeter, each said inner ring interior side being joined to the interior side of the other inner ring, each inner ring having a at least one holding ring attached to a portion of the inner ring inner perimeter, said holding ring for each inner ring being matched and aligned when the inner rings are joined;
• at least one weighted element adapted to being inserted into the holding ring;
• a plurality of roller bearings each comprised of a roller disk and a central shaft extending laterally and centrally from each side of the roller disk, each roller disks being placed into the hub assembly annular groove;
• wherein said hub assembly is positioned within the rim assembly central opening;
• wherein each roller bearing central shaft engages two adjacent outer ring slots;
• wherein the roller bearings rotate within the hub assembly annular groove and are held in place by the roller bearing shaft engagement with the outer ring slots.

A toy wheel, comprising:

• a rim assembly;
• and
• a hub assembly rotatably joined to said rim assembly;
• wherein:
• said rim assembly is comprised of two annular rings, each said ring having a substantial central opening, an outer perimeter, an inner perimeter defining the central opening, an interior side facing the other ring, and an outer side, each said ring interior side being joined to the interior side of the other ring;
• said hub assembly is comprised of:
• two disks, each said disk having an outer perimeter having a plurality of peripherally disposed indentations formed therein, a flat interior side facing the other disk, and an outer side, each said disk having an off-center opening adjacent the disk outer perimeter, said off-center opening being matched and aligned with the other disk, each said disk interior side being joined to the interior side of the other disk, wherein the outer perimeter indentations of one disk are aligned with the outer perimeter indentations of the other disk forming a plurality of hub assembly indentations;
• at least one weighted element adapted to being inserted into the off-center opening;
• a plurality of ball bearings, each ball bearing being placed into a hub assembly indentation;
• wherein the hub assembly is positioned within the rim assembly central opening, said ball bearings rotating within the hub assembly indentations.

A toy wheel comprising:

• a rim assembly;
• and
• a hub assembly rotatably joined to said rim assembly;
• wherein:
• said rim assembly is comprised of two annular outer rings, each said outer ring having a substantial central opening, an outer perimeter, an inner perimeter defining the central opening, an interior side facing the other outer ring, and an outer side, each said outer ring inner side having a plurality of slots formed therein and radially extending from the inner perimeter a predetermined distance toward the outer perimeter, said slots being positioned about the outer ring inner side, each said outer ring interior side being joined to the interior side of the other outer ring, said slots of one outer ring being aligned with the slots of the other outer ring;
• said hub assembly is comprised of:
• two inner rings, each said inner ring having an outer perimeter, an inner perimeter, an interior side facing the other inner ring, and an outer side, each interior side having an annular groove formed therein adjacent the outer perimeter, each said inner ring interior side being joined to the interior side of the other inner ring, each inner ring having at least one holding ring attached to a portion of the inner ring inner perimeter, said holding ring for each inner ring being matched and aligned when the inner rings are joined;
• at least one weighted element adapted to being inserted into the holding ring;
• a plurality of roller bearings each being placed into the hub assembly annular groove;
• wherein said hub assembly is positioned within the rim assembly central opening;
• wherein each roller bearing engages two adjacent outer ring slots;
• and
• wherein the roller bearings rotate within the hub assembly annular groove and are held in place by engagement with the outer ring slots.

A wheel apparatus, comprising:

• a rim assembly;
• and
• a hub assembly rotatably joined to said rim assembly;
• said rim assembly is comprised of two annular rings, each said ring having a substantial central opening, an outer perimeter, an inner perimeter defining the central opening, an interior side facing the other ring, and an outer side, each said ring interior side being joined to the interior side of the other ring;
• said hub assembly is comprised of two disks, each said disk having a diameter less than the diameter of the rim assembly rings, an outer perimeter, an interior side facing the other disk, and an outer side, each said disk interior side being joined to the interior side of the other disk;
• a plurality of bearings;
• each said hub assembly disk having means spacedly disposed at the outer perimeter thereof for receiving and supporting said plurality of bearings therebetween;
• said hub assembly being positioned within the rim assembly central opening;
• said bearings supported for rotation within the hub assembly and against the rim assembly rings.
