A step assembly for an automotive wheel includes a first member at least
partially defining an annular track, a second member connected with
respect to the track for movement along the track, and a third member
defining a stepping surface. The third member is pivotably connected with
respect to the second member for selective movement between a stowed
position in which the third member acts as a center wheel cap, and a
second position in which the third member presents a horizontal step
surface. The third member is movable along the track with the second
member to enable a vehicle user to reposition the step surface after
wheel rotation.
