ABSTRACT:
A fitting structure for a vehicle wheel cover, having an open loop formed by a curved bar, an elongate connecting cover, an adjusting nut and a plurality of fitting seats mounted to the loop. The loop has at least one end terminated with a bent portion and the other end formed with external threads. The connecting cover movably covers the first and second ends, and the adjusting nut is engaged with the external threads of the second end. Each of the fitting seats has a seat member, a holding member extending from one side of the seat for holding the loop, and a buffer element mounted to the seat member at one side opposite to the holding member. The seat member includes a displacement slot allowing one end of the buffer element to extend through. The other end of the buffer member is configured to engage with a screw member extending through the wheel cover.
