Abstract: A protective cover for installation to a vehicle wheel to prevent dirt, dust or foreign substances from entering through openings in the wheel into brake assemblies carried by the wheel is disclosed as comprising a relatively thin, flexible, dirt impervious planar sheet of plastic film having a circular outer periphery sized to substantially cover the wheel. A plurality of closely spaced, relatively small corrugations are formed in the sheet and extend in a circular pattern spaced radially inwardly of the outer periphery to permit the central portion of the sheet to be selectively deflected laterally of the plane of the periphery. Pressure sensitive adhesive is carried by the sheet in a circular area which is generally concentric with the outer periphery and lies radially outwardly of the corrugations.
