On the near wake of a Formula One front wheel [PDF]
, 2013 Velocity measurements were made in the near wake of the front wheel of a Formula One car using a laser Doppler anemometer. Tests were carried out on a 50% scale in a closed-return three-quarter open-jet wind tunnel. Three configurations were investigated

On the Influence of Ride Height Changes on the Aerodynamic Performance of Wheel Designs
International Journal of Automotive Engineering, 2015 On the road a passenger car's ride height is elevated both by the radial expansion of the tires due to centrifugal forces and aerodynamic lift. Wheel size and design influence these forces and therefore may affect aerodynamic drag more than predicted ...
