ABSTRACT:
A wheel and grease cap combination in which a plastic covered portion on a vehicle wheel is provided with a radially inwardly facing annular groove positioned adjacent to an opening in the wheel for receiving the grease cap and radially inwardly of the bolt circle for receiving bolts to attach the wheel to the axle hub. The groove receives a plurality of attaching means formed on the grease cap which deflect radially inwardly upon attachment and detachment of the grease cap. The attaching portions firmly engage the bottom of the groove to prevent both axial and rotational displacement of the grease cap relative to the wheel.
