8708.70.60.30 - Wheel rims for vehicles of subheading 8701.21, 8701.22, 8701.23, 8701.24 or 8701.29 or heading 8702, 8703, 8704, or 8705

This classification covers wheel rims specifically designed for use with vehicles falling under subheadings 8701.21 through 8701.29, and headings 8702, 8703, 8704, and 8705. These wheel rims are essential components of the road wheel assembly, providing the outer structure onto which the tire is mounted. They are typically manufactured from metal, such as steel or aluminum alloys, and are characterized by their circular shape with an internal bead seat and flange designed to secure the tire.

It is important to distinguish this category from its siblings. While 8708.70.60.45 covers wheel covers and hubcaps, which are decorative or protective external elements of the wheel, this classification is strictly for the structural rim itself. The "Other" category (8708.70.60.60) serves as a residual for any road wheel parts or accessories not specifically enumerated elsewhere within this subheading, reinforcing the precise scope of wheel rims. As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions within this classification.
