The Camaro Z/28 Is So Fast, It Outran Its Own Tires. Here's How Chevy Fixed It.

It's well known that the Chevy Camaro Z/28 has the widest front tires of any production car. At 305 mm wide, those tires produce tremendous grip--especially since they're Pirelli P Zero Trofeo Rs. In fact, they make so much grip, the Z/28 was spinning the tire around the wheel under braking--the Z/28 was, in effect, outrunning its tires, or at least their ability to grip the wheels.

It's an unusual problem for a production car, but it's a good one to have--too much grip is just enough.

Part of the cause also comes down to the Brembo carbon ceramic brakes, which provide tremendous stopping power for the large but track-worthy Z/28. But regardless of the cause, Chevy had to find a fix for the tire-on-wheel slippage issue.

If Chevy hadn't found a solution to the problem, it could have resulted in the wheel/tire package going out of balance--like the wheels they're mounted on, tires aren't perfectly uniform around their circumference. That's why the wheel/tire package is balanced as a unit.

Typically, Chevy says the tire-wheel slippage issue is solved through the use of an abrasive paint along the bead of the wheel, where the tire seats. The Z/28 team tried this, and found it wasn't enough to prevent the problem.

So they took it to the next level, using a racing solution: they media-blasted the rim of each wheel. That finally produced enough friction to keep the Z/28 from spinning the rubber around the metal.


Like the Flowtie, and the Flying Car Mode, this is just another small but significant piece of engineering that makes us appreciate the Z/28 that much more.

Camaro SS 454.

[Timmie]

is een RS
verder is er nooit een SS 454 geweest.

ook geen RS 454

[PT Cruiser]

Ne 454 is veel recenter, klopt dat?

[Timmie]

nooit standaard een 454 in een camaro gelegen.
427 is het grootste dat men is gegaan.


Firebird is dan weer een ander verhaal.
daar hadden ze van 71 tot 76 de 455 pontiac HO motor.
