So, I recently went to Butler Tires to get a flat fixed and after watching the Bugatti Veyron 253 mph run, in which the folks at Top Gear said the tires would last only 15 minutes, I wanted to ask how much a set of the specially made tires cost.
To my surprise, they sell two versions, one set costing a mere $17K and the other more expensive set costing just $29K. That's just for the tires. Wow.
Here's the video. Amazing to see it get to 407 km/h.
