hub cap
Decorative wheel cover
A hub cap is a decorative cover that fits over the center of a car wheel, concealing the lug nuts and hub assembly.
Hub caps range from plain plastic discs to elaborate chrome designs.
They're distinct from wheel covers, which span the entire wheel face, though the terms often blur in casual use: Someone stole the hub caps off my car.
