Oh, dude, heating the iron rims of the wheel of a bullock cart helps expand them so they can easily fit onto the wheel. It's like giving them a little warm hug before they pop right into place. So yeah, it's just a little pre-wheel fitting spa treatment for those rims.
Heating the rim expands it
The metal tire is fitted on the wheel of a bullock cart via the rim. The rim has bolts which are tightened so as to firmly hold the tire in place.

Heating will expand the wheel, making it easier to slip the wheel onto the axle. When the wheel is cooled, the wheel will contract and grip the axle tightly.

The wooden wheel is soaked or kept wet for an hour or so, not too long or it will swell and the joints come apart. The metal tyre is heated by turning it in a fire using tongs until it has expanded enough to fit over the wooden wheel. It is knocked down around the wooden wheel on the ground using a hardwood block and a four pound hammer. It is then cooled in oil.
It will but not as effectively.
The metal rim will expand when heated. It will then contract once placed round the wooden wheel's rim. This contraction will tighten and hold the wooden rim in a vice-like grip. The spokes and the wooden rim is made in separate parts and need the metal rim to hold it all together.
When a rubber wheel is heated, it becomes softer and more flexible due to the increased temperature causing the rubber molecules to vibrate more. This can lead to the rubber wheel losing its shape or integrity, and potentially becoming deformed or damaged if exposed to excessive heat.
Color Wheel!
Heating steel tires before slipping them onto a wheel helps expand the tire, making it easier to fit onto the wheel. As the tire cools, it contracts and tightly grips the wheel, ensuring a secure fit. Additionally, the process helps prevent air leaks and tire slippage during use.
The heated steering wheel will help you stay awake and your hands don't go numb! It is very dangerous to have numb hands because you can't feel ANYTHING and you might not turn quickly.
