Are you possibly

COLOR ?

You see me in a wheel,

A COLOR WHEEL is often used to portray color:
color wheel

although I am truly a line;

Color is caused by wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation which progress linearly from low to high (a line).
Or (unlikely) a reference to the term color line

I am normally a thought-out part of designs;

Most design processes, web, architecture, print, etc. have color as an integral part of the planning.

But people debate if I am just in your mind.

It is a common question regarding whether we all actually see the same colors, or if our perceptions of color are determined by our own individual minds.

Title:

Yes, color is truly everywhere! It is difficult to imagine a place without color. Maybe deep space? Yet I'd color that black.

Are you possibly

Time?

You see me in a wheel, although I am truly a line;

We view time in clocks, which are in a circle, but time is - according to one theory - a line going straight forwards, second after second.

I am normally a thought-out part of designs;

You take into account how long things will take when planning.

But people debate if I am just in your mind.

Is time real? Is it an illusion? Does anyone really know?
