I would think there is potential gain from not having the hubcaps spin with the tires even if symmetrical. Whether worth the trouble/expense maybe not.
It does open up some possibilities that might not have been thought of,
if nothing else might have some interesting asthetics.
The wheels are covered by the body in the Indy One.
It is the gap that I'm thinking about. There can be more than one wheel tire size, so the gap can't be made real tight. |
You might do a mock-up and attach it to one of the wheels and then run it through the entire range of wheel flop to see if there's interference anywhere.
If you like what you see,then it's a sure thing.
Basjoos ran the equation backwards for AEROCIVIC,with skirts which respected the front wheels full range of motion.
