ABSTRACT:
An enclosure for encapsulating a wheel, where the wheel includes a tire and wheel rim. The enclosure has a cylindrical shape with a cylindrical side wall and circular end closures whose inner diameter and inner height are greater than the size of the wheel, thus forming a cavity within which the wheel may be placed. The enclosure is separated into two parts on the cylindrical side wall along an elliptical parting line, including: front and rear container halves. The elliptical parting line of the rear container half forms a mounting shelf in the lowermost cylindrical side wall upon which the wheel may rest, and also forms a wheel accessible opening in the upper-most cylindrical side wall for easy removal of the wheel.
