Overall I expect the idea is either less efficient than the standard wheel or still too immature. Actually the heavy vehicles on the site do appear to have some sort of cover. ![]() Imagine what happens when you drive in the mud: lots of gummy stuff on the inside of your wheel! :P In the end they may have to place a hubcap on the wheel despite the loss of the unique look of the wheel.
