you are correct... but we are on a gm site....... so wheelcovers over caps....In general conversation I may call them hub caps......but a hub cap is icorrect... see its like this... a wheel cover is just that a wheel cover.. a hub cap is just that.. the little round thing on the end of the spindle (knuckle for those that realy know what it is) is a cap.the little disk that only coverd the lugs and knuckle cap is a hub cap.
