An arrangement has a wheel and a sheet-shaped cover element. The wheel has a rim, a hub and a plurality of spokes, wherein the wheel has a free space between at least every two spokes spaced apart in the circumferential direction. The free space being at least partly covered by the cover element and, on its inner edge, having a slight step on an outer side of the rim, which step extends at least in some portions along the edge. The cover element and the rim are formed and arranged relative to one another in such a way that a gap resulting in the region of the step from the arrangement of the cover element relative to the rim, following entry of a flow into the gap until exit from the gap, causes an at least two-fold deflection of the flow passing through the gap from the vehicle interior to the vehicle exterior or from the vehicle exterior to the vehicle interior.
