Lahore high court Judge gets his car tyres changed for 74000 USD

Bugatti veyron tyres cost 32000 usd "per set".
Here we have a judge of a poor country having his car tyres changed at public tax money's expense at more than three times the price .
Hey but let's criticise military budget .
What car does he use?
 
Dear, the price is unbelievable even if we consider the element of corruption in it by the purchasing department. Please check the authenticity of it. I believe it is fake.
Judges know, that nobody can question them, likewise their corruption is stellar.
 
Was he purchasing a tyre of the Starship Enterprise? I guarantee no Mercedes tyres are that expensive even in Pakistan.
 
i first read it as 74,000 PKR and thought - "that seems reasonable for branded tyres".

Then i realised it USD not PKR... :bad:
 
This is ridiculous,
but playing devil's advocate
the mercedes and the tyres may not be road version,
it maybe the armored version,
in which case one can understand the cost.
A set of 4 tyres, 19 inches from Michelin would be about 900 - 1150 USD.

indeed they are, its a B7 category Merc with run flat tires, but still I think they have quoted a exuberant price. But most of it will be taxes that would go back in the Govt kitty.

Military grade run flat tyres cost 600£ a piece in UK, and thats the best quality ones. Run flat tyres can be bought for lower prices, with lower permissible speed after puncture.
That's a total of 2400£ for armoured vehicles 4 tyres.
Now try to justify 74000 usd
