Just wanted some opinions before I buy into possible hype. Mind you I drive 110 miles a day on the hwy, and I need to consider simple aero mods to help maximize FE. |
Seems like for the caps to operate,they would have to be mounted via a bearing set, to an inner ring,then weighted like a pendulum,so as to always maintain a level orientation.You would be adding the mass of the unit,plus the additional rolling-resistance of four more wheel bearings.Sorry! I give it a thumbs down.
