Some are necessary for the sense that the car won\u2019t work without these parts and components. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, there are some that may not be necessary for the car to work but are still very much important for safety reasons, and that is why they are always recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it is not unusual for some car parts to be there because they just are there. That means that they don\u2019t serve a lot of purposes other than making the car look good. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And, sometimes, making the car look good can go a long way in terms of driver satisfaction or even resale value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, in that regard, are wheel covers necessary, or are they just there on your car for no purpose other than making the vehicle look good?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we talk about whether or not wheel covers are necessary for your car, let us first look at what wheel covers actually are so that it would be easier to understand what their purpose is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When we talk about wheel covers, they are just that, and that means that they are simply cover wheels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can see these components covering the ugly-looking portion of the wheel to give the wheels a more cosmetically appealing look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, you may have also heard people calling wheel covers hubcaps, and this term has become quite synonymous with wheel covers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>But what you should know is that wheel covers and hubcaps are not entirely the same.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The difference between a wheel cover and a hubcap lies in how much of the wheel\u2019s surface they cover. Wheel covers are supposed to enclose the entire diameter of the wheel, while hubcaps cover only the hub or the center of the wheel. Then again, there is no difference in how they work and what they do, and that is why people often interchange the two terms to the point that they have become synonymous with one another.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/ford-van-wheel-hubcap-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"ford van wheel hubcap\" class=\"wp-image-3076\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/ford-van-wheel-hubcap-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/ford-van-wheel-hubcap-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/ford-van-wheel-hubcap-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/ford-van-wheel-hubcap.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So, going back, the purpose of the wheel cover or the hubcap is to simply cover the wheel. That\u2019s it. There is nothing more to it other than covering the wheel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, as wheel covers cover the wheel, they also protect the inner portion of the wheel from mud, debris, and dirty all while covering the ugly lug nuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, in essence, the wheel cover does not have to serve a purpose other than covering the wheel and making it look good. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure, there are people who say that the wheel cover is great at keeping dust, dirt, and mud out of the wheel, but that goes into aesthetics as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The inner portion of the wheels is made to withstand dirt and mud, and they can still get dirty and muddy with or without the wheel cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In other words, wheel covers are not necessary. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are plenty of car parts and components that serve very important or necessary purposes, but the wheel cover does not belong to the list that includes those parts and components. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A car can work just fine and without any sort of problem regardless of whether or not you have a wheel cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I drive without wheel covers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/car-plastic-wheel-cover-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"car plastic wheel cover\" class=\"wp-image-3081\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/car-plastic-wheel-cover-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/car-plastic-wheel-cover-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/car-plastic-wheel-cover-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/car-plastic-wheel-cover.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know what wheel covers are and what they do for your car, this leads us to the question of whether or not you can drive if one, some, or all of your wheels do not have wheel covers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Going back to the point of putting a wheel cover on your car, it is easy to come to the conclusion that you can drive without wheel covers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, basically, there should be nothing wrong that will happen to your car if you drive without these hubcaps. In fact, the car will operate well regardless of whether or not there are wheel covers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the reason why you can drive without wheel covers goes back to the very purpose of a wheel cover. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Essentially, a wheel cover is just there to cover the ugly nuts and lugs that you don\u2019t want people to see while you are on the road. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, the purpose of a wheel cover is merely for improving the car\u2019s overall aesthetics while also aiding in minimizing the chances of dust and mud entering the inner portion of the wheels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from that, there is nothing wrong with driving without a wheel cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While your car will work perfectly fine and just the same with or without wheel covers, let\u2019s be honest to ourselves when we say that we do not want to look bad whenever we are driving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That is the very reason why we want to use shiny and aesthetically pleasing cars, in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cars may be just a way for us to go from point A to point B, but we also want to drive in style while looking good in the process because looking good can help improve our confidence and the way we feel about our cars. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On top of that, having a good-looking car can serve a purpose when it comes to first impressions in businesses and relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, practically speaking, you can drive a car without a wheel cover. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>But do we recommend it? <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Not really, and that is because you should still try to look your best even when it comes to driving your car.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, a wheel cover and a good-looking car can help increase the vehicle\u2019s overall value as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No one wants to buy a car with ugly wheels precisely because there is no wheel cover to hide the ugly side of the wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is driving without hubcaps illegal?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/peugeot-van-wheel-center-cap-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"Peugeot van wheel center cap\" class=\"wp-image-3079\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/peugeot-van-wheel-center-cap-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/peugeot-van-wheel-center-cap-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/peugeot-van-wheel-center-cap-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.motorhowto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/peugeot-van-wheel-center-cap.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While we did say that driving without hubcaps is perfectly okay and that there is nothing wrong that will happen to your car, what about the legality of doing so? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Is driving without hubcaps actually illegal?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The law seems to be silent in this regard, there is nothing that says that you cannot drive your car without wheel covers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the law is silent regarding this matter, it only means that there is nothing illegal about driving a car without hubcaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, the reason why there is no law regarding wheel covers or hubcaps is that there are no safety risks involved when you are driving without wheel covers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, there are some instances when wheel covers can be dangerous, as they can fly off your wheel and harm other cars and people who are within the vicinity.
