If you have your heart set on flush aerodynamic covers the guys over at Ecomodder dot com zip tie pizza pans (and or coroplast) to their wheels.

Just mentioning because you can test fit (mock-up) this look to any car before pulling the trigger, and it's real life 3D unlike Photoshop.

What distinguishes the OZ wheels in the opening post is they have a lot of character to them, tectonic but not too futuristic.

The crisp edges help.

The older wheels of this style look like claw-foot bathtubs by comparison.
