ABSTRACT:
A vehicle wheel cover is retained on a vehicle wheel by a plurality of cantilever type retainers having teeth which engage both a flange of the wheel and the tire bead seat. The retainers are removably attached to the cover body and are pre-shaped to a slightly arcuate configuration prior to assembly of the cover to the wheel to provide for ease of assembly together with low stress and a high load.
