Greetings!

The Bugatti Tire and Wheel

They're almost ready for delivery!

After many months of effort, the Bugatti Tire and Wheel will be ready to ship in a few weeks. We've asked Paul Koo to make one of his famous Instructions to assist in the making the minor modifications necessary for the fit of our new slimmer Wheel.
The Tire is similar to the other marquees...that is; they are soft and flexible, matte finished and (most importantly) they are prototypically thinner. See contemporary prototype photo below.

The Wheel had to be thinned to accommodate the new Tire. At first, we tried to use the Pocher parts by thinning them...but, the results didn't satisfy us! So, we had them designed on a CAD system and then "printed" using rapid prototype printing (3D). In the process, we had the air fins properly shaped with a correct sharper edge. The Wheel is now cast in colored resin in one piece...no assembling.

Because the Wheel is thinner, it will be necessary to modify the spindles and hubs. Not difficult...the parts are brass and easily filed. One should also also thin the brake shoes.
And, yes, the Wheels have the correct air fin direction. Just specify, if you only want one set.

The Pocher is the one on the left!

Part No. B022 $80.00 per set (one Tire and one Wheel)

Part No. B022t (single Tire) $30.00 each
