Wheel Cover
THIS invention relates to a wheel cover. More specifically, the invention relates to an advertising wheel cover having a wheel mount for push fitting into a vehicle wheel rim and a display disc rotatably mounted to the wheel mount by bayonet-type connectors. The display disc is off-centre weighted so as to remain in a substantially upright and static orientation relative to the wheel mount, which is rotatable with the wheel.

AERODYNAMIC COVER FOR A VEHICLE WHEEL, ATTACHMENT SYSTEM FOR THE AERODYNAMIC COVER TO THE VEHICLE WHEEL, AND VEHICLE WHEEL HAVING SUCH AN AERODYNAMIC COVER AND ATTACHMENT SYSTEM
A vehicle wheel comprises a wheel disc, wheel rim, and wheel axis. A first cover spans between the rim and a hub portion of the disc. An axial portion of the first cover extends substantially along the axis. A plurality of first vents in the axial portion are arrayed circumferentially about the axis. Tabs extend perpendicular to the axial portion at each of the first vents. A second cover is secured to the rim and extends radially inward from the rim in a direction perpendicular to the axis. A plurality of second vents are in the second cover and arrayed circumferentially about the axis. The first and second covers are on opposite sides of the wheel. Each of the first and second covers has a greater extent in a radial direction perpendicular to the axis than in an axial direction parallel to the axis.

AXLE MOUNTED TIRE SHRAPNEL CONTAINMENT SHIELD
Apparatus and associated methods relate to a tire containment device securely mounted to an axle of a vehicle to contain shrapnel caused by a tire blowout. In an illustrative example, the tire containment device may include an axle bracket and a tire fender. The axle bracket, for example, may be mounted to an axle of the vehicle. The tire fender may, for example, have a substantially continuous containment cavity. In some examples, when the tire fender is coupled to a vehicle axle by the axle bracket, the containment cavity may extend over at least a top and an exterior face of an upper third of a diameter of a tire. For example, the containment cavity may substantially intercept shrapnel from failure of the tire before it reaches a body of the vehicle. Various embodiments may advantageously reduce damage to a body of the vehicle during a tire blowout.

Wheel trim retention cap
A cap for retaining a wheel trim with a wheel includes a body portion which slides inside a central opening defined by a hub portion of the wheel trim. The body portion has a first end and a second end. The cap includes at least one engagement portion coupled to the body portion. The at least one engagement portion engages with an internal wall of the hub portion. The cap includes at least one retaining tab coupled to the body portion towards the second end of the body portion. The at least one retaining tab extends radially outwards from the second end of the body portion. The cap further includes a holding portion coupled to the body portion towards the first end. The holding portion extends radially outwards from the body portion such that the holding portion abuts a disc portion of the wheel trim.
