Just a quick distinction. The snap-in racing disks do add frontal area. I know because mine was damaged going through a car wash that grabs the wheel. I think the snap-ins are compromising on the possibility that there won't be enough interior clearance, so they bow out even more.
The snap-ins are NOT the MOONs, they just look like them.
