I'm another that is looking for plastic "moon" hubcaps. I bought 16" stainless steel push-on hubcaps last year and just recently lost one. Because they are prone to loosening and flying off.
Heck, I even found the same "moon" wheel cover (but in 15") by the side of the road. So I know this is a common problem. It's not just me.
I have a set of cheap 15" plastic wheel covers I bought year ago. These have a thick metal wire that, in conjunction with plastic fingers, provide the friction to keep them in place. Running them 4-5 months each year for 5+ years, I have never lost a one. They stick well and are lightweight so there is less force pulling them off.
I too have to think it's just a matter of time before these are commercially made. Why not make them and make outrageous claims about 5-10% greater fuel economy?
With all the gimmicks that are out there ... why not make these ... something that will actually work? (albeit subtley)
