Over the course of the last five years, Racing Rivals has grown into one of the most hardcore racing games in the world. This loyal community has spent countless hours competing in millions of races in “winner take all” fashion – all in the name of Turf Wars and pink slips.

However, all good things must come to an end… After spending time evaluating Rivals and its future – we’ve decided that it’s time to move on. Simply put, the revenue generated from Racing Rivals unfortunately no longer covers the cost of operations. This was not an easy decision to make.

On March 31st, 2019 – Rivals will be racing off into the sunset, and will be permanently shut down. Current players have until this date to utilize any accumulated virtual currency. We’ll be offering some massive reductions in the cost of crates, installs and repairs in addition to a reduction on timers as you race your way into the history books. Effective immediately, no new in-app purchases will be permitted.

In closing, a resounding and sincere THANK YOU to our extremely driven fans for your loyalty and dedication over the years – we hope you’ve enjoyed playing Racing Rivals as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it.

Does the Wheel Size provided any bonuses like better grip and does it add weight?

    Or is it just cosmetic?

    Just cosmetic. It changes nothing.

    Interesting. I know that in the game it's cosmetic, but in reality, wheel size can make a big difference, especially with the launch, but not much else after that. It would matter more in an actual race, not a 1/4 mile. Handling and cornering would be better (to a certain point). If it gets too big, well then it will effect it negatively, but there is a perfect wheel size.

    Also, the width of the tire can have a difference. You should allow spacing of tires lol

    I wish we could mess with tire pressure, camber and all of that stuff too. Would add an extra element. But I suppose then the game would get more complicated. I am a huge fan of Grand Turismo and F1 simulation games though. Much better than racing rivals, but I am not in the right circumstances to play those at the moment, so I'm left to my stinking android.
