Your Guide to Wheel Styling

Parma Group has been supplying wheel trims since the company started in 1999, our range has grown from simple beginnings to encompass one of the largest ranges of HGV truck, Trailer, Bus, and Coach wheel trims in the UK.

What the difference between wheel trims and hub caps?

Wheel trims, also known by many different names such as hub cabs, hub covers, wheel covers or wagon wheels, all refer to the same thing.

What are the benefits of having wheel trims?

Wheel trims are designed not only to be aesthetically pleasing, but to protect the wheels underneath from dirt, corrosion and other damage that could be costly and dangerous.

Can I have both wheel trims and nut rings?

In some cases, yes! We've made kits that contain both a liner, a nut ring and some nut caps, so you know they'll work together. Find them here.  Full wheel trims that cover the entire wheels cannot be used, so we recommend using our pre-made kits.

Why would I choose nut rings instead?

Nut rings allow you to see the wheel nuts so they can be used in conjunction with nut covers, wheel nut indicators & partially wheel nut locks.

Choose your style

Your choice of wheel trim or nut ring entirely depends on what look you're going for. See below to have a look through the styles we offer and how they look on a vehicle.

Deluxe Style

These durable mirror-finish stainless steel trims are an excellent option for bus wheel trims, and horsebox wheel trims.

Super Deluxe Style

The super deluxe version offers a more chunky realistic presence when fitted to the vehicle, with extra deep fitting going back into the wheel further than the standard deluxe version. 

Scandinavian Style

All-time popular favourite standard, solid stainless steel truck wheel trims. A great choice for all types of vehicles.

Vinci Style

Vinci wheel trims are a traditional favourite style for buses, coaches and trucks. Original stainless steel Vinci trims with plastic disc centres are made in Italy.

Coloured Nut Rings

Choose from our range of coloured nut rings to stand out and enhance your brand image, while looking stylish.

Stainless Steel Nut Rings

If you prefer a mirror-finish look to your fleet, choose the stainless steel versions of our nut rings. We stock these in both closed and open centre variations, so you can get the look you want.

Choosing the right size

With our range of wheel trims, sizing should be easy. If you look at the wheel you're buying for, on the tyre you'll find a series of letters and numbers. Typically, the wheel size will be after the letter R. See the graphic below - you'll be looking for the rim size. In both of our examples, the wheel is 22.5". We offer sizes from 15" to 22.5", so there's something for everybody!

When choosing a Nut Ring, these are categorised by how many studs the wheel has, either 6, 8 or 10. Within each product, there will be a PCD measurement too. You'll need to check this is the right size for you wheel using our PCD calculator, which you can find here.
