I love those HRE's, very nice choice! They also make a great quality wheel!

Tha HRE wheel is the business right there the spokes pairs are the same thru the wheel design, the Donz wheel looks good too. Of course the factory DB wheels look great but they are expensive and hard to find, one of the main reasons I love my factory sport forged split 5s ... Check out CCW also John makes really nice polished alum forged wheels, Ive had a set of 505a for my sl55 Amg Mercedes and they were just right on the car, but it's a fully polished wheel so gotta really stay on top of it to keep it clean!

Quote: Hey D! Those would look better on an AM if they were concave. You offer that?
Yeah we do! We offer them in FMS (straight face), XL (extra lip), VS (concave), CV (deep concave) and MB (monoblock). Configuration depends on what you need. We make it happen.

Yeah, those HREs look good. It would be good to see them photoshopped onto the car. I am normally a split 5-spoke fan but that Ace Convex also looks pretty good on the DBS pictured above.

I agree with the comments about the Latest OEM split 5, Aston did a great job with that. It's not often an OEM wheel trumps absolutely anything aftermarket. I have been on the lookout for a set of these at a fair price, but it looks like I have some competition!

The stock wheels look by far the nicest of those options. I'd pay $5k to move from the options back to stock.

Quote: The late model diamond turned DBS wheels do appear on ebay from time to time. There was set with tires that was offered at $4k a few months ago. I think someone on this forum was thinking about them for his Vantage. You'll need to check ebay routinely and maybe over several months to have a chance.

Here's another good looking alternative from ADV.1. I've been thinking of them for my 360.
I'm really looking at the ADV.1 5.0 SL's now.....

agreed. only problem is the stock 5 spokes run more then that

Each time I think about getting wheels I look at the factory forged split 5 spokes on my car and think "nah...that just looks right" ... maybe it's like a recipe, a little is not enough and too much is overkill. When Aston made designed the wheels for these cars they "baked the perfect cake" so to speak

Those ADV.1's are sweet and you likely will never see another set on the road, which makes it that much sweeter.

The ADV's are nice, but IMO, I like a mono block design on the Aston.

At eBay UK: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ASTON-MART...item35c1743a21

Less than the ones on eBay USA, but shipping might even it up.

Note: this is a UK AM dealer! Also, it says that the 20% VAT is included in the price!! Doesn't apply to exports!!!
