Wheel Spinners / Floaters for better aero

I've been working on the wheel covers for the Indy One,
and wanted to bring up an idea I have had for covering the wheel wells,
by using essentially 'wheel spinners'. These are wheel covers that have bearings and so spin asynchronous to the wheel.

When the don't spin at all, it looks like the car is 'floating', as the wheels appear to not be spinning at all. So while that is a neat trick, why not use it for a wheel well covering instead?
