A wheel bearing module in a wheel carrier that has a wheel bearing and a wheel flange. The wheel flange is mounted using the wheel bearing which allows it to rotate relative to the wheel carrier about a rotation axis. The wheel bearing has at least one outer ring. The wheel bearing is supported, at least in areas and via an outer ring, at least radial to the rotation axis in the wheel carrier. The outer ring has, at the axial end of the outer ring, a flange radially pointing away from the rotation axis.
