Abstract
The present invention discloses a jam nut, method and system used for attaching wheel liners to vehicle wheels. Each wheel liner attaches to a vehicle wheel when the wheel liner is aligned between the exposed lug bolts of the vehicle wheel and jam nuts that attach to the lug bolts. The wheel liner defines openings that are sized to receive the cylindrical extension members located on the ends of the jam nut without receiving the hexagonal portion of the jam nut.
