The invention concerns wheel center cap assemblies that include an adapter and a wheel center cap that registers with, or is integral with, the adapter. In some embodiments, the adapter includes tracks and lug sleeves that couple with lugs of the vehicle wheel. Each of the lug sleeves is slidably coupled to each of the tracks of the adapter, and each of the lug sleeves is adapted to move along a length of the tracks; this helps ensure that the adapter is universally compatible with multiple wheel models. In other embodiments, an adapter has a body adapted to be inserted within the center aperture of the wheel. A posterior support registers with the adapter and is sandwiched between a rotor of the vehicle and the wheel to secure the adapter inside the aperture of the wheel; a removable wheel center cap registers with the adapter to adorn the wheel.

The present disclosure is directed to a wheel cover that is coupled to a wheel of a vehicle utilizing a mounting assembly that has a bearing block. A retainer assembly in combination with the bearing block of the mounting assembly allows the wheel cover to be coupled to the wheel in a manner such that the wheel cover does not rotate with the forward and backward rotation of the wheel when the vehicle is being driven. The wheel cover covers the wheel and partially covers a gap or space between a tire of the wheel and a fender of the vehicle, which increases the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle. The retainer assembly provides at least one degree of freedom such that the wheel cover may move with the wheel when steering the vehicle in a leftward direction and a rightward direction.

A wheel cover unit for rear wheels of trucks or buses includes: a wheel cover, two attaching members and a cover. The wheel cover is provided with an inner concave portion having a central hole. The inner edge of the central hole is vertically and backwardly provided with a hole ring having two corresponding pairs of slots. Two pairs of lock tabs are extended from the two pairs of slots respectively to the central hole. Each attaching member is provided with a connecting element and an engaging element. The connecting element is formed with a connecting portion for passing through the bolts of the wheel. The engaging element is formed with two connecting pieces. Each connecting piece is locked with the lock tab by a screwed element, so as to assemble the wheel cover to the rear wheel of the truck or bus.

A protector shield for a sidewall of a motor vehicle tire, and to a wheel assembly for a motor vehicle incorporating this protector shield is provided. This protector annular shield is configured to be mounted on a wheel rim receiving said tire. The protector shield includes at least two concentric shield rings having a first shield ring and a second shield ring which are axially juxtaposed and which respectively include, substantially arranged end to end in a circumferential direction, a plurality of first arcuate sectors and a plurality of second arcuate sectors which angularly overlap each other, so that every two consecutive second sectors are substantially arranged end to end axially in front of a first sector short of both ends of this first sector.
