Arrow Thanksgiving Teaser: V12 Vantage Carbon Black with new HRE P101's

Just wanted to share a quick teaser pic of my latest setup on my V12 Vantage Carbon Black edition. 20" HRE P101 wheels in Brushed Tinted Clear finish with carbon-fiber centercaps sitting on H&R springs.

Full specifications and photoshoot to come. Happy Thanksgiving..!

Very nice. I have a Black 08 V8 and I think those are the perfect set of wheels for my car. I may go with 19's when I finally spring for a set, just to preserve a bit more ride quality.

I have 20" HRE's on my 07 Vantage shod with Michelin PS3's and the ride is superior to my stock 19" wheels that has Bridgestone S-03s on it. Tires make a difference!

Bridgestones are notoriously harsh and heavy. Also, don't forget that Michelin pilot Super Sports use a much lighter weight Kevlar belting, where as Bridgestones use a heavier old fashion steel belting in the tires. As a result the Michelins are 2-3 lbs lighter per any given size. Those 2-3 lbs of mass reduction are at the very edge of the wheel magnifying its benefits.

I will be running MichelinPilots soon.... (Whoops, spoiler alert).

Great look. I had P43's with that finish on my V12V. They looked amazing. Please post more pics.
