Summary:A wheel trim assembly including a plurality of radial extending spoke members is characterized by a spoke retention plate integrally formed from a polymeric material for gripping the inward radial ends of a first and second plurality of spoke members, respectively, on a first and second axial layer in a secure manner so as to inhibit annoying noise-generating vibration as well as to securely retain the center hub assembly, spokes and outer ring in assembled relationship. The center retention contemplates a separate lock collar being insertably, nonrotatably captivated within a central plate opening and the integral arrangement for inhibiting rotation of the lock nut rotatably disposed therewithin.
