The arguments in this thread are laughable. Let the man do what he wants

We don't have to look so far into this... the owner drives his Veyron around on ADV1s in town, if he ever feels like hitting 210mph+ he swaps the oem wheels/tires. Sounds fine to me. Great looking wheels .

Thank you! And that's essentially what will happen. He will switch over if he feels like breaking the speed of light. If he wants to only break the speed of sound, he can use ours

Adv is a great name in wheel engineering. I think they have more than proved their worth in the automotive world. I can't wait to see the final product!

The arguments being made against this are silly. You don't run snow tires on the race track kind of like you don't run slicks in snow. This is no different.

Not to mention how many Veyron owners test the cars limits? Where can you legally go 253mph? I can see the issue in unrestricted areas and races which actually have enough space for the Veyron to get to top speed (which takes a LOT of distance) but honestly. Not sure how much of a case is there if you willingly break the law?

Can't wait to see the result. The wheels look great.

Good info in here. The numbers on the cost of Veyron wheels/tires and the fact that they are so specific to the car is just mind boggling. Very excited to see this though.

Forgive me if I overlooked the info, but is this a one-customer thing that you are building or are you expecting to sell multiple sets?

Good looking wheel and much respect for putting them on a car of this caliber but wheels for cars like the Veyron are designed for a reason, not just to be functional but to fit the character of the car. There aren't any aftermarket wheels out there that could do a better job than what Bugatti offers.
