A system of fairings to streamline the underside of a vehicle, including airfoil-shaped fairings to streamline elements of the vehicle's axle/suspension system. Such fairings may be pivotable and linked to the frame or body of the vehicle in such a way that they adaptively provide down-force or lift, respectively countering the tendency for a wheel to rise off the surface of the road or be squashed against the road due to cross winds or sharp turns. Fairings so configured not only increase efficiency by reducing aerodynamic drag, but also improve vehicle stability, reducing any tendency for the vehicle to overturn.
