I suggest keeping the aperture size to a minimum. THe more wind that blows 
in there and swirls around the more drag you will have in flight. Several 
people have fitted fairings that streamline the wheel when retracted.. Kim 
Prout , who sadly rarely speaks on here, sells his I believe and is one of 
the real speed gurus. He was lucky, (also skilled) his Dad worked for 
Lockheed Skunk Works.
