The style of the wheels look good...I don't like the Mansoty kit on the DB9, too much going on takes away from it's factory original design - perfect simplistic beauty. I'd think the wheels would look best in 19 - 20" size as well.

I agree. I like the style of the wheel, but would not want to go larger than a 20", and I would loose that tacked on looking ground effects kit. IMHO, as stated above, a car such as this does not need an aftermarket ground effects package. It kills me to see these beautiful machines riced up like Honda Civic's.

Yea I agree anything bigger than a 20" is just to big for these cars.

Aston's design is all about flowing it's curves and lines. The rear bumper does an ok job doing this(again not perfect but "ok"), at a fast glance you would think the rear is of a DBS copy..but the sides and front end just destroy all the lines of the car..look at the front, where do these lines get carried to..nowhere!! ..prob looked good on paper but was bastardized in production..just my 2cents but pretty sad, I could prob do a better job with cardboard and ducktape

Agreed. Wheels look great - nice design. But that body work....ugh! That's like putting D-size implants on Olivia Wilde.....

Why not run a special on those wheels for the Aston Forum Members? I could be persuaded to buy a set if the price were right, they look good and everyone loves a bargain.

Agree the Mansory kit is too busy and takes away from the elegant curves.
The wheels are ok but are too similar to the spoke style on the DBS. I am actually looking for a different more aggressive wheel for my DBS - let me know what else you have.

You have to admit, for Mansory it looks pretty good.

^^^ Nope, I've seen better work from Mansory, this looks attrocious and destroys everything a DB car stands for. It's a Monstrosity more like it.
