Abstract:
A wheel of a motor vehicle includes a hub portion, spokes extending radially outwards from the hub portion, a rim which is supported on the spokes, and a spoke area cover which is delimited by the rim. A respective cover is provided on both sides of the spokes, i.e. facing the interior side of the spokes and facing the exterior side of the spokes. The interior-side cover, which is annular when seen in a projection in the direction of the wheel rotational axis, is adhered to the edge of the hub portion and to an annular region of the rim and/or the interior side of the spokes. The exterior-side cover is designed in an annular manner either over its entire surface or when seen in a projection in the direction of the wheel rotational axis and can be interchangeably inserted into a groove in an annular rim region and/or in an annular region of the rim and the hub portion with an intermediately positioned seal element.
