Front skirts would not necessarily have to be a full blown cover to be effective, although the full skirt would have the optimum aero advantage. A partial skirt could work also.

My idea is more of a three piece design. Two of the pieces being stationary at the front and rear of the wheel well. Basically serving as filler pieces between the wheel well and tire. The third piece positioned over the top of the tire, being somewhat oval shaped, mounted to the steering knuckle and moving as the wheels are turned. Possibly even pushing on the stationary pieces to allow for more clearance at more extreme turns.

The tire would be totally exposed but would still be more aero efficient.

I hope this is understandable, I am going to have to work on some drawings for this.
