A mounting clip, comprising:

• an elongated channel that extends the length of the mounting clip and having a first end, a central portion, and a second end, wherein the elongated channel engages a wheel rim along the length of the elongated channel;
• the elongated channel having a base and radially extending flanges, wherein the flanges are configured to extend opposing sides of the wheel rim;
• at least two laterally widened sections along the elongated channel;
• wherein at least one end of the elongated channel extends beyond one of the laterally widened sections;
• a plurality of teeth assemblies having tines are secured to the mounting clip such that the tines extend radially outward around the circumference of the wheel rim and in the opposite direction of and in parallel-spaced alignment to the radially extending flanges;
• the tines each extend between a first end and a second end;
• the tine having a ball-shaped retaining member at the first end;
• the tine having a shaft received through a tine hole in the mounting clip, wherein the shaft is configured with a diameter smaller than the diameter of the tine hole, and the retaining member having a diameter larger than the diameter of the tine hole in the mounting clip at the greatest diameter of the retaining member;
