  • Patent number: 4881783
    Abstract: A wheel liner assembly (10) comprises an annularly-shaped cover member (12) defining a hole (18) which is larger than a cluster of threaded studs (22) on a wheel hub (24) and a circularly-shaped cap member (14) having a plurality of stud holes (50 and 52); the annularly-shaped cover member and the circular-shaped cap member having indentations (48) and protrusions (42) so that they can be snapped together. The cap member has an outer perimeter diameter that is larger than a diameter of the hole in the annularly-shaped cover member so that when the liner is mounted on the wheel hub by lug nuts (54) engaging the threaded studs it impinges on the annularly-shaped cover member and thereby clamps the annularly-shaped cover member to a load-bearing portion (28) of a vehicle wheel (30). Some of the stud holes in the cap member are larger than the lug nuts so that not all of the lug nuts must be removed to mount the liner assembly.
