Various implementations include a tire cover. The tire cover includes a body, first and second straps, and first and second fasteners. The body has first and second body ends and first and second body sides. The body defines a first channel extending along the first body side and a second channel extending along the second body side. The first strap extends through the first channel and the second strap extends through the second channel. First strap ends of the first strap and the second strap are coupled to the first body end, and second strap ends of the first strap and the second strap are coupled to the second body end. The first fasteners are coupled adjacent the first body end. The second fasteners are coupled adjacent the second body end. Each of the second fasteners is releasably couplable to a different one of the first fasteners.

There is provided a tire sun shield, an attachment system for the tire sun shield, and a method of making and using the tire sun shield. A structure according to the present disclosure includes: a flexible fabric sheet including two holes; a flexible frame attached to a periphery of the flexible fabric sheet; two resilient fasteners, each of the two resilient fasteners having a first end and a second end and being threaded through a respective one of the two holes, two fasteners configured to attach to a wheel, one of the two fasteners being attached to the first end of one the resilient fasteners and another of the two fasteners being attached to the first end of another of the resilient fasteners; and two resilient fastener locks configured to be secured to a respective one of the two resilient fasteners at the front side of the flexible fabric sheet.

A trailer for use with a truck having at least one drive wheel is disclosed. The trailer includes a floor configured to carry cargo and a protective enclosure moveable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The protective enclosure has a frame and a top panel, a first side panel, a second side panel, and an end panel that are attachable to the frame. In the stowed position, the protective enclosure is positioned adjacent the floor. In the deployed position, the protective enclosure projects away from the floor and the top panel, the first side panel, the second side panel, and the end panel cooperate to form an interior space shielded from inclement weather. A method of servicing at least one drive wheel of a truck coupled to a trailer is also disclosed.

In an aspect, a protective kit for a vehicle wheel is provided. The wheel includes a rim with a pressurized tire mounted thereon. An outboard flange of the rim and an outboard side of the tire are resiliently engaged. The kit includes a wheel cover member including a cover sheet with outer and inner edges, and a through-opening, and an elastic member connected to the cover sheet at the inner edge. The through-opening and elastic member can encircle the outboard flange of the rim. The kit further includes a plurality of driving cards, each having a selected rigidity and a selected thickness so as to be pushable against the wheel cover member in between the outboard side of the tire and the rim, so as to drive the wheel cover member radially inwardly between the outboard side of the tire and the rim.
