PARTIAL WHEEL CLADDING
A wheel assembly including a cover portion permanently attached to a wheel. The wheel includes a wheel central hub portion, a wheel outer peripheral rim portion, a plurality of wheel spoke portions extending between the wheel central hub portion and the wheel outer peripheral rim portion, and a plurality of wheel turbine openings disposed between adjacent ones of the plurality of wheel spoke portions. A cover portion is configured to overlie a portion of the wheel portion. The cover portion is configured to overlie one or more of the wheel central hub portion; the plurality of wheel spoke portions, and the plurality of turbine openings or the wheel outer periphery. An adhesive is disposed between an outboard surface of the wheel and the inboard surface of the cover portion to permanently secure the cover portion to the wheel portion. When the cover portion is secured to the wheel, substantial portions of the plurality of wheel spokes, the wheel central hub, or wheel outer periphery remain exposed.
WHEEL ASSEMBLY
A wheel assembly having an outboard portion and an inboard portion including a wheel hub configured to enable fastening of the wheel assembly to a vehicle such that the outboard portion is oriented away from a centerline of the vehicle and the inboard portion is oriented toward the centerline of the vehicle, a wheel rim positioned concentrically with the wheel hub, and configured to receive one or more friction elements, and one or more wheel spokes radially connecting the wheel hub and the wheel rim, each of the one or more wheel spokes having a retainer positioned at an inboard portion, the retainer being configured to enable retaining one or more decorative parts at an outboard portion of the wheel assembly.

Flexible wheel cover overlay with extended surround
A snap-on wheel cover overlay made of a flexible material includes a peripheral boundary defining an inner surface and an outer surface, a surround extending from the peripheral boundary, a plurality of spokes and a plurality of openings, and a plurality of clasp mechanism pairs. Each opening of the plurality of openings passes from the outer surface through the inner surface and is located between each successive spoke of the plurality of spokes. The plurality of clasp mechanism pairs extends from the inner surface with a first clasp mechanism located on a first edge of one spoke and a second clasp mechanism located on a second edge of a succeeding spoke. The wheel cover overlay is capable of forming a first degree of curvature greater than 2.0? for a 10 cm first arc length of a first arc of a circle having a center point on a line extending from a central vertical axis of the wheel cover overlay and arcing away from a central horizontal axis of the wheel cover overlay.

VEHICLE WHEEL COVER
A vehicle wheel cover is provided. The vehicle wheel cover includes a base, and a printed layer formed at a first location of the base. The printed layer is formed from a plurality of layers of images, such that, at least a first layer of the plurality of layers is located at a first depth from other layers of the plurality of layers. The vehicle wheel cover further includes a plurality of brake cooling holes that is formed as a pattern at a second location of the base. The second location is different from the first location. Based on a movement and an illumination of the vehicle wheel cover, the printed layer forms a three-dimensional graphic image.
