An automobile wheel cover includes a central hole and a bearing seat, an annular seat with a plurality of slots, an elastic post provided between each two slots, and an adjusting block which includes a first end and a second end which is larger in diameter than the first end, the first end is inserted in the annular seat. The adjusting block includes a recess and has the first end inserted in the annular seat, a screw horizontally extends outward from the first end of the adjusting block and is inserted into the bearing seat, at least one nut is screwed on the screw and abutted against an outer surface of the bearing seat, rotating the nut can make the second end of the adjusting block move toward an interior of the annular seat, and the posts expand outwardly.

An apparatus and a method are provided for a centerlock wheel assembly that is configured to improve driving dynamics and provide faster wheel changes. A centerlock adaptor is provided with a plurality of vehicle bolt pattern configurations disposed thereon. A first and threaded abutment are disposed on the centerlock adaptor. A hub adaptor is configured to threadingly engage with an exterior surface of the threaded abutment, thereby retaining a centerlock wheel, for example. Finally, a center cap is provided to threadingly engage with an inner surface of the threaded abutment. For each side of the vehicle, the centerlock assembly features particular threading arrangements so as to retain the centerlock wheel and counteract against various wheel dynamics. A centerlock wrench is provided to tighten and loosen the hub adaptor and center cap.

A system for attaching a plate to a vehicle is provided. The system includes lug nuts and lug bolts for attaching the plate to a threaded wheel stud. The lug nuts each define a threaded stud recess for engagement with a threaded wheel stud and a threaded bolt recess for engagement with a threaded portion of a lug bolt. The lug bolts each define a head for rotating the threaded portion of the lug bolt into the bolt recess of the lug nut, a shaft positioned between the threaded portion and the head, and a rotatable portion. The rotatable portion defines a center aperture freely rotatable about the shaft and a bolt aperture for accepting a fastener. A lock nut is positioned about each of the lug bolts for locking the lug bolt into position relative to the lug nut.

An assembly for an ATI comprising a tube member forming a portion of a rotary union to be removed through an opening in a wheel hub without removing the wheel hub from the vehicle axle. The tube member may include a hardened shaft that is coupled to a fixed conduit providing a pressurized air source to a tire installed on the wheel hub. A bushing and seal rotates with respect to the tube member to form the rotary union. The assembly is designed to be quickly serviced in the field, where the serviceable parts are very inexpensive.
