Wheel turbulance Q for gurus.

I have no graphics program as yet, so bear with my goofy descriptons.

Barring full wheelwell covers, could some measurable gain be realized by simply putting a " tire scraper" in the trailing edge of the wheelwell, located as close to the tire as possible and at the height of the loaded axle centerline (greatest diameter of the tire?)

My thinking is that the wheelwell can only eat as much as it gets fed.
