10 Modern Performance Cars With Retro Wheel Spats
Wheel spats are pretty much a thing of the past, but what if these aero devices appeared on lots of modern fast cars? We asked our friendly neighbourhood renderer that question, and he came up with these…
McLaren 675LT
Ferrari 488 GTB
Tesla Model S
Lamborghini Centenario
Honda Civic Type R Prototype
Nissan GT-R
Pagani Huayra
BMW i8
Chevrolet Corvette Z06
Ford GT
Head over here to find out more about wheel spats, and why they’ve mostly been relegated to the history books.
And thanks to Ian.L for the inspiration!
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Pagani and GT look good. The rest are meh.
Pagani is ugly but is the best.
That lambo rocks it
I need that Huayra in my life NOW! Also, I always thought the NA Miata would look amazing with wheel spats and whitewall tires.
and nobody had a fully covered wheel, sigh
How about a tire change?
Some of them aren’t bad.
