Ferrari Mailing List: Re: BaT goes after the deep pocket crowd

[Brian E Buxton (BrianBuxton]

Military didn’t have to account for the (well heeled) general public.  A military pilot dies and it’s a sacrifice. A Bugatti customer dies and it’s a huge lawsuit.  

So is there anything special for airplanes?  I’m assuming the demands of a car tire are very different from an airplane? Sustained heat, speed etc in a 250 mph vehicle?

Interesting article.  Overinflation …

That’s kind of ridiculous 

The F-4 main gear lifted off the runway after a mile takeoff run at about 

200 knots that’s around 230 mph and it weighed 58k combat gross weight

And those tires were not glued on !

That was 1960 technology

The cost is because the tires are glued to the rims.  You can buy aftermarket rims for the Veyron and use Michelin Pilot Sports. You just can’t do 250mph runs.  Veyrons are not as expensive as they are portrayed.  You don’t have to pay $12,000 for an oil change.
