How many times per second do the wheels on a Bugatti Veyron spin at full speed?

How many times per second do the wheels on a Bugatti Veyron spin at full speed|||The tyres on the Veyron are 365-35ZR19





35 aspect tyres on a 365mm width tyre gives you 127.75mm + a 19" rim gives you a total tyre diameter of 610.35mm





The circumference of a circle is given by C=蟺d





C = 蟺 * 610.35mm





C = 1917.471mm





If the car could do 407.9 km/h for the whole hour, it would cover 407.9km or 407,900,000mm





407,900,000mm / 1917.471mm = 212728 revolutions in an hour





212728 / 60 minutes / 60 seconds = 59 revolutions per second at top speed; assuming there is zero wheelspin.
