British spelling.
Hi, welcome to Wikipedia. In the Bugatti Veyron article you recently changed the British spelling of 'tyre' to the US spelling 'tire'. In order to avoid British and US editors continuously changing the spelling back and forth, the guidelines at WP:ENGVAR tell us that whichever form is used first in its history should be the form that is kept - unless there is a strong national tie to the other spelling form. Eg articles about US Fords should use US spelling, articles about English Fords should use British spelling and articles about European cars should continue using whichever form the first editor choose. Cheers.  Stepho  talk 16:33, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Thank you, actually. I learned something today. I apologize for the change. Sir wins 5550  01:51, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
