My guess would be that the wheels are very light and the tires have little sidewall. Thus they would be more prone to damage than a typical wheel. But I doubt it will ever be an issue as it would require driving the car for 30,000 miles. Most probably won't even be driven 1/10th that distance.

Wheels are Carbon and have to be xray'd and checked for internal cracks and such. Must be shipped to facotry for tire changes. If you own one, may as well buy an extra set to reduce downtime.

The world's fastest car is a modded Ford GT which completed the Texas Mile at 263.3mph.
Think about that for a second. The Veyron cannot go that fast, and it cannot reach it's top speed in 1 mile. American muscle FTW. I think American's should be proud - the Europeans are arrogant. They think they build the best cars, but pound for pound (or rather dollar for dollar) - the best cars are made in North America. Last edited by rez333; 12-03-2012 at 03:40 AM. |

If you want to champion an American ultra-high speed car, go for the SSC Ultimate Aero Twin Turbo. At least it beat the Veyron for the title of worlds fastest car (until the Super Sport came out). It still could be the fastest car, as the theoretical top speed of the UA TT is 273 mph -they've just never got around to retesting it for reasons I'm not quite sure of.
