Some of us didn't have a choice! The car came with these...



I plan to switch out to HRE's one day, but the cost and waiting time would prevent me from enjoying the car now.

In terms of favorite wheels I'd have to vote for the HRE p4_SC. I like all of the forged series.

Thanks again..
Vantage is same as DB9, but V12V is different I believe.

The red calipers on a black car are definitely sweet.

The monster who was the first owner of my car did this to the stock wheels and I was able to live with it till now. I've gotta get this taken care of before spring..

If you want to replace those with a set of OEM wheels, I've got a set of take-offs in perfect condition in heavy duty OEM boxes. $800 plus shipping.

I should have mentioned this before. The wheels on my car are all chrome also.

I had the centers plastidipped black as a temporary measure, until I buy new wheels.

Plastidip is fairly cheap and you can buy at your local Home Depot or lowes.

Modulare 20" Vantage
When ever we go to car meets with other Vantages - the Modulare 20" wheels still draws the people more towards my car than others. Of widens the car and is a good match to the color of the exterior.

Prefurbia I recently put a set of Modulare Wheels on my Cayenne Turbo. Really well made. I really like the tint and the offset of your wheels. What color tint is it? But why do your Lug Nuts stick out so far on your car?

Those look great on your car! Very hard to find on the second hand market. I've been looking for some.
