Bulletproof and Non-Bulletproof Tires in FiveM via handling.meta
In this article, you’ll learn how to correctly set whether a vehicle has bulletproof tires or normal tires that can be shot out—without having to edit the model.
📋 Configure via handling.meta
Instead of modifying the model or vehicles.meta, you edit the vehicle’s handling.meta.
Find the line:
<strModelFlags>xxxxx</strModelFlags>
Here, you change the 7th digit from the right to determine whether the tires are bulletproof or not.
🔧 No bulletproof tires (tires can be shot out)
Use one of these examples:
<strModelFlags>220010</strModelFlags>
<strModelFlags>440010</strModelFlags>
This makes the tires not bulletproof.
🛡️ Bulletproof tires (tires cannot be shot out)
Use one of these examples:
<strModelFlags>2220010</strModelFlags>
<strModelFlags>2440010</strModelFlags>
This makes the tires bulletproof.
Tip: Don’t forget to reload the vehicle or restart the server after editing handling.meta.
