Check out the Barrett Jackson Bugatti getting wheels and tires at Vivid Racing!!!!!!!

Wheels look great on the car! I take it those tires aren't capable of reaching the speeds that a Veyron can reach? I know this isn't the first time aftermarket

Wheels look great on the car! I take it those tires aren't capable of reaching the speeds that a Veyron can reach? I know this isn't the first time aftermarket wheels have been put on a Veyron, but I'm just curious. The OEM tires are some kind of special Michellin tire that can handle those 250+mph speeds.

Now that I think of it, I wonder what kind of tires those cars that run 200+mph in the standing 1/2 mile and mile events use.

Yeahhhhhh... Not sure why anyone with a Bugatti would change wheels... I know I wouldn't. I assume Ze Germans did their homework
