Abstract
An attachment for a cup shaped ornamental hub cap comprises a resilient clip ring assembled with the hub cap. The clip ring comprises an annular dish spring part clamped to the open inner-end of the hub cap to be axially tiltable and a plurality of spring legs extending radially and inwardly from the inner peripheral edge of the dish spring part adapted to engage with an annular recess on a cylindrical flange of a wheel body, whereby in attaching the hub cap onto the cylindrical flange of the wheel body, the spring legs of the clip are resiliently engaged with the annular recess due to tilting movement of the dish spring part.
