This is actually the "effect" I wanted to create with my old SC2 back in the 1990's. I wanted to make it look like my car was "floating" over the road.

Because you are adding a heavy "weight" to the outside of the wheel (at least that's how I *think* it works), I suspect that the driving characteristics change.

...
By design, they use a weight to try to keep the image oriented. But they are also assuming the image does not extend past the wheel.
