A wheel assembly to be coupled to a hub of a vehicle may include an inner rim to be coupled to the hub of the vehicle and an outer rim surrounding the hub. The wheel assembly may also include gas springs operatively coupled between the inner rim and the outer rim to provide a gas suspension for relative movement between the inner rim and the outer rim. An outer ring may be adjacent an inboard side of the outer rim and defining a closeable gap with adjacent interior portions of an inboard side of the inner rim to define a mechanical stop to limit relative movement between the inner rim and outer rim. The gas springs may be arranged on an outboard side of the outer ring.
