ABSTRACT:
A wheel cover and wheel cover attaching device retaining the wheel cover on a wheel having evenly distributed openings. The attaching devices include a plurality of brackets carried by and uniformly distributed about a flange formed at the edge margin of the cover and a plurality of both the threaded elements formed with a hook shaped portion at one end and a threaded portion formed at the other end. The threaded portion is fit through a hole in each bracket and the hook shaped portion is oriented to pass through the wheel openings and be held against the back side of the wheel when the threaded portion is tightened down at the bracket by a nut. The tightening of the nut serves to tension the element to apply forces against the bracket for drawing the wheel cover toward and tightly against the wheel.
