Provided are systems for switchable wheel view mirrors, which can selectively provide views of one or more wheels of a vehicle to, for example, check for obstructions. A system for a switchable wheel view mirror can include an image sensor coupled to a vehicle, a reflective surface, and an actuator. The image sensor can capture an image within a field of view of the image sensor. The reflective surface can be coupled to the actuator which moves the reflective surface between a first position and a second position. In the first position, a view of at least a portion of a wheel of the vehicle is visible within the reflective surface and the reflective surface is disposed at least partially within the field of view of the image sensor. Methods and computer program products are also provided.
