Ron, Aston Martin Club Spain posted the closeup pic you took of your wheel on their facebook page! They gave you full credit too!

Thanks for the compliments guys. I guess that's cool they use iPhoto have to see it at some point.
One question though, why is it when I upload my pictures they look so small when everyone else uploads and their large? I upload them at 300 dpi a 12 x 14"

^^^^ Because you're using the forum's image uploader. If you use an image hosting service (I use Photobucket, for example) and then include an "img" link in your post, the pictures will show up large.
Also, don't bother putting up large images. A 1,600 pixel wide medium-quality jpg is more than adequate for posting pictures online. In fact, if you post larger size files you may annoy other members, so I would strongly discourage it. Large files cause slow page loads and also eat up bandwidth for members using mobile devices with data limits.

those are gorgeous wheels? Could you tell me the offsets? And are you running stock tires? I'd love to get those in black. And are those the AM center caps?
And where'd you get the wheels from?
Car looks superb!

they are stock (sports pack) sizes just a more aggressive offset to be a bit more flush with the fenders. unfortunately the aston center caps don't fit. I ordered them from Dale's Wheels and tires in Fort Lauderdale (got a great deal with a set of Michelin PSS). The offsets are 38 front 45 rear. They are really nicely finished and, in my opinion, if your not going to throw down serious money for HREs or something comparable its an excellent choice.

Thanks V-law, I checked and they make a black painted wheel in that model (I think they're the convex?)

Yep. those are the ones. They took about 10 days to get but it was well worth it. The offsets are really the limit. Any farther out and they would be sticking out of the fenders but I don't know if you actually can go less aggressive unless you get spacers as they barely clear the calipers.
