what exactly do you call a wheel

["Jorge Mazlumian" <jmazl@domain.elided>]

What is the term for a wheel/tire combo?
In Italian it's called *ruota*, the combo being the cerchione/pneumatico.
In Spanish is *rueda*, being a combo llanta/neum=E1tico.
If you say *wheel* you are only talking about the metal portion, then wha=
t
is a whole?
Is it just *wheel*?
