Abstract
Abstract The wheel hub cover comprises a central portion wherefrom extends an annular band (4), arranged coaxially with respect to the central portion and having radially projecting tooth-like elements (10,11) rigidly associated therewith. The tooth-like elements (10,11) are adapted for snap-together coupling with a groove (12) provided on the wheel hub (13). An annular element (21) is provided which engages with the tooth-like elements (10,11) to push them elastically outwards.
