Heavy Impact Motorsports has teamed up with CTW Motorsports to compete in 2013 in the Camaro Mustang Challenge in the Midwest and Great Lakes regions of NASA. Prior to the release of CTW's new 17" rim for the 3rd gens, no reasonably priced wheel has existed that would allow the 3rd gens to run 17" rims with the beefier 275 tire without massive and heavy 2" spacers. These new wheels not only eliminate the necessity of a spacer but also allow enough room to run any big brake package you could fit in a 17" rim and at a weight of only 20.4#s per wheel!
During this next year, we will not only be strength testing these new rims (the design has already been heavily raced in BMW's as well as Miata's) but also to prove the extra performance gains to be made out of running the beefier 275 tire over the standard 255's run on 16" GTA rims. We will also substantiate our findings with traqmate data.
