ABSTRACT:
A wheel cover is attached to a vehicle wheel by a plurality of spring steel clips secured to the cover at circumferentially spaced locations. Each clip is provided with a resilient arm cooperable with portions of the wheel cover to prevent excessive bending of the clip during attachment and removal of the cover from the wheel and also to assure substantially coaxial alignment of the cover and wheel in predetermined axially spaced relationship when the cover and wheel are attached.
