    Abstract: A vehicle wheel lighting system powered by the sun including light emitting devices attached to the front of a wheel in an aesthetic array. The light emitting devices are powered by rechargeable batteries that are recharged by solar panels. The light emitting devices are activated by light sensors that sense ambient light for automatically energizing the light emitting devices in darkness. In addition to the vehicle lighting system's aesthetics, it also provides automatic lighting for the vehicle, which from the safety standpoint is beneficial when a vehicle is parked or stopped or moving.
