  Avon Safety Wheel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Avon Safety Wheel was a new type of wheel for cars, invented by the Avon Tyre Company of Britain in the early 1970s.
The Avon Safety Wheel avoids the detachment of a deflated tyre by having a much shallower central recess within the interior of the wheel.
The Avon Safety Wheel was first used on the 1974 Vauxhall Firenza, and also later on the HS Chevette.

 Vauxhall Firenza - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Suspension was double wishbone and coilsprings at the front, and a live rear axle with trailing arms and coils at the rear.
Suspension was uprated and lowered, brakes uprated, and a 5-speed ZF dog leg gearbox was installed, a much stronger unit than fitted to the standard model (though rather noisy).
Another unusual and unique feature of the car was the alloy Avon Safety Wheels, which were designed to retain the tyre safely in the event of a puncture.
