Here are a couple of suggestions:

(1) Try squeezing a gob of silicone on the wheel in several places next to where the wheel cover saw-toothed portion contacts the wheel. Once the silicone has cured, it should stop the cover rotation; and

(2) Over time the wheel covers lose their grip because of removal and installation. Try expanding the saw-toothed portion by bending with plires so it will exert more pressure on the wheel.

I once had a cover rotate and cut the valve stem. The cover would not depart from the wheel, just rotate around it. It is a condition that needs to be dealt with. Good luck.
