ABSTRACT:
A wheel cover includes a wheel cover body and a flexible annular member positioned therearound. The wheel cover body is formed in approximately a disk form, and a plurality of a through-holes are formed at the outer periphery thereof. The body of the flexible annular member is formed in a configuration that the inner periphery overlaps the outer periphery of the wheel cover body. On a side of the body, there are formed retaining projections at the position corresponding to the through-holes of the wheel cover body. Each retaining projection has a base portion, an intermediate retainer portion, and an extremity grip portion. The base portion is formed to be engaged with the through-hole. The intermediate retainer portion has a larger cross section than the base portion so as to be constricted to pass through the through-hole when it is pressed into the through-hole and hold the wheel cover body in collaboration with the body when the base portion is engaged in the through-hole. The extremity grip portion has a cross section smaller than that of the through-hole.
