Abstract

A wheel bearing arrangement which has at least two rows of rolling bodies for mounting a wheel hub which can be driven with the wheel bearing arrangement by a drive element. The wheel hub is connected to the drive element, and the wheel hub and the drive element engage positively into one another via a pair of mutually corresponding spur toothings. In the wheel bearing arrangement, a value of greater than three is obtained for a ratio of the diameter of a toothing reference circle of the spur toothing in the wheel bearing arrangement to the rolling body row spacing of the at least two rows of rolling bodies.
