In the same spirit as the Rolls Royce floating center caps that are always up right. However, and it might just be the red center caps, but I think the reason it works on the Rolls, is that the double R is a very simple design, and easy for the eyes to train on it being static and upright. The Jag cat is already a busy emblem, and you'd have to really be focusing hard to see if it's upright or not. Couple that with the busy-ness of the spokes spinning and it makes it hard for the eyes to train and see that it's right-side up while the wheel spins. Just my opinion, though. Personally, I can't see the caps while I'm driving, so either way would work for me. Generally people I get thumbs up from are for the car as a whole, and I don't know if that would be even noticed by many people if they weren't already aware.
