ABSTRACT:
A simulated wire wheel trim for a vehicle wheel is disclosed which requires assembly of only three basic members yet still provides a very realistic appearing interleaved spoke pattern. The wheel trim includes an outer hub member having a plurality of integrally formed spokes, an inner hub member also having a plurality of spokes integrally formed therewith, the outer ends of which are interconnected by an annular flange portion and an annular ring member to which the annular flange portion and other spoke ends are connected. A suitable retention system for retaining the wheel trim on a vehicle wheel may also be attached to the annular ring member. The wheel trim is particularly designed to be fabricated from polymeric compositions so as to provide a very lightweight yet realistic appearing simulated wire wheel trim.
