The tires are like $50K because they're specific for that car and that also includes the expensive wheels (which are replaced along with the tires for preventative safety). So that 5 digits is for the wheels and tires. Still ridiculous, but it's not just for the tires.

launch price: 975,000 gbp (2007)
service costs: 1st one is 13,645 GBP (bugatti claim that 6,000 GBP is for labor alone).
They insist you replace the tires every 2,500 miles and each tire costs 6,325 GBP and only Bugatti can fit them.
all 4 wheels need to be replaced every 3 tire changes(7500 miles tops) and that costs 29,900 GBP.
notes: Veyron warranty is 2 years and if u want to extend for a year its 38,000 GBP or 63,000 GBP for 2
