An aircraft wheel and brake system includes a wheel assembly mounted on an axle portion of landing gear of an aircraft. The aircraft wheel and brake assembly may include a brake assembly installed within an interior space defined by the axle portion of the landing gear. The brake assembly may occupy substantially all of an interior installation volume defined by the axle portion, thus increasing a brake mass that can be accommodated by a given axle/wheel size/configuration. The brake assembly may be accessible at an open outboard side of the axle portion, allowing for removal and replacement of the brake assembly without removal of the wheel assembly from the axle portion of the landing gear and/or lifting of the aircraft to facilitate removal of the wheel assembly. The wheel assembly may include a tire mounted on a rim assembly including multiple rim portions coupled by an interior fastening ring.
