Comstar wheel Disassemble" stamped on the wheel rim alongside other markings such as the fitment size. For its use on the NR500 GP machine, the wheels were made from magnesium with titanium used for the fasteners. Composite wheels were also cheaper to produce than their cast alloy equivalents. From the early 1980s Honda had begun equipping newer models with cast wheels called ComCast stating "...that technology has solved the casting porosity problem and that cast wheels are now used on Hondas for styling and marketing reasons". ComCast wheels were a combination of pressed-together cast aluminium hub and spokes with a hollow extruded
Rim (wheel) side with a radially inner cylindrical wall in the zone of the outer seat and with a radially outer frustoconical wall inclined at an angle corresponding to the standard inclination of the rim seats. The rim is then calibrated. To support the cylindrical rim structure, a disc is made by stamping a metal plate. It has to have appropriate holes for the center hub and lug nuts. The radial outer surface of the wheel disk has a cylindrical geometry to fit inside the rim. The rim and wheel disk are assembled by fitting together under the outer seat of the
