BLK TONY Report post Posted March 13, 2012 Some of you may know by now that we have been working on creating the first drivable aftermarket wheel set up for a Bugatti Veyron. It's been a lengthy process with some experimentation but it's a project we'd take on any time again! We can now create wheels for a Bugatti Veyron with no problem at all and that's something we're proud of. We will getting some photos of it on the Bugatti shortly but for now you guys will have to just enjoy the wheel shots! Anyway, enough of the talk. Here are some specs: ADV6.0 Track Specs Front: 20x11 Rear: 21x14 The finish on the centers is our signature brushed gunmetal with the lips being brushed with a liquid clear coat.

Steve K Report post Posted March 14, 2012 custom tires ??? please elaborate. (if/when you can) i think many of us would be interested in custom sized tires (especially the aftermarket wheel guys). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterShake Report post Posted March 14, 2012 Custom tires? I'm not aware of any other tire that is rated for the Veyron's top speed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup Report post Posted March 14, 2012 So these wheels are able to handle all the torque/power/weight of the bugatti veyron like the original wheels can? If so very very nice! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bert Report post Posted March 15, 2012 Can't wait to see them on a Veyron. Will these wheels have to be replaced after a certain amount of miles like the Bugatti wheels? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLK TONY Report post Posted March 15, 2012 Thank you guys for the question! This set has been getting a lot of attention. Some good, some bad... We are forced to use aftermarket tires for a few reasons. 1. Bugatti is VERY strict with their cars and we cannot purchase their tires from them or Michelin. And 2. Only a few places in the world have the tools to remove the tire from the wheel and they will not let us use it. So with that said, we were forced to go aftermarket. We aren't releasing all the info on it yet, but it will retain the same rolling diameter as stock. The one issue is that they are Y rated for 200-210 MPH. The wheel itself can handle the power, but the tire should not go above 210MPH. Our customer did this because you're supposed to change tires every 2500 miles at more than $10k a set and you're supposed to change the wheels every 3rd tire change at $60 a set. The tires we're using will be $2k and will still be able to handle how he drives 98% of the time. If he wants to go max speed, he's going to put on the OEM wheels until we can get another tire. Hope that answered some questions! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'd own a Veyron I would be tearing up those canyons at 200MHP with Allan and that Lotus dude Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLK TONY Report post Posted March 15, 2012 Lol Ronin? And you can still tear up the canyons at under 210 mph Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin2772 Report post Posted March 21, 2012 Honestly seems like a pretty wise investment to me. Few will ever reach those speeds and the monetary requirement needed to keep it running efficiently at those speeds is just a waste for 99.9% of owners. Make that bitch more daily driveable.

need4spd Report post Posted June 7, 2012 Nice it's about time some aftermarket wheels are available. Do the veyron wheels have sensors that need to be transferred over to the new wheels? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chipster Report post Posted June 7, 2012 Haha, it seems like it's taken longer for these wheels to get developed than it took for UGR to design a turbo system and break through the ECU on the Aventador! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of which, where is that guy that told everyone it would be impossible for anyone to put a turbo system on the Aventador? I think he worked for Lamborghini NA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're keeping it under the wraps for now. Any update on this car? Even if it's an update of "oh we ran into some issues and more development it needed". Just some sort of update.
