Rokeby -
The idea is similar, but slightly different. The wheel deflectors are similar because they're a leading object which opens a wake for the tire to travel in, but different in that they're only really there to prevent the tire from compressing air under and around it, creating potential traction issues and instability.
Same principle, different application, I suppose.
Great way to look for typical application, though!
