Inspired by a post on another thread, I have recently found out that every 10,000 Miles Bugatti recommend you change the wheels themselves and not just the tyres(which I could understand).

Why? Surely every Bugatti Veyron owner isnt taking their car to 250+ every journey, so why would it matter? Have they given reason for this, or is it just a way to make little bit more money?

Seems silly and unnecessary to me!

Any thoughts.

I bet they have a strange PCD as well so you can't shop around or ebay the old ones.
Thats probably a good thing, otherwise they would be stuck to a hipsters Scirocco within a week.

I don't think it's an issue of whether millionaires can afford it or not, it's more they don't like being totally ripped off. I've read a few stories of owners that are sick of the high mandatory maintenance costs associated with the Veyron. And if you don't stick to the schedule, Bugatti won't touch the car at all.
Yep, it does sound like either crap engineering or a rip off. Pity this thread got derailed by the valve cap debate.
Derailed is an understatement! hehe

Definitly a rip off way for Bugatti to claw some money back on the car.
