A spare wheel cover or spare tire cover is an accessory that covers the spare wheel mounted on external part of a car or van. On 4x4 vehicles, the spare wheel is normally rear mounted and is often printed with a design. Covers can be hard shells or soft vinyl covers. Spare wheel covers protect spare tires from dirt and UV rays in areas with high sun exposure. Covers are recommended to be removed and cleaned every once in a while.
