I do hope WheelB doesn't regret his sponsorship. Without vendors like that we wouldn't be able to express our unique personalities.
You know what they say - Opinions are like a**holes, everyone's got one

 

Your pictures look way better as far as ride height goes. I don't know what would compel them to take something that actually looked quite good and ruin it by making it way too low.

 

I think that the dramatic photo effects and crazy lowering are cool for imagery and make for great posters. Not sure how epic the idea is from trying to sell more wheels as its not a refection of the real dynamics of the car BUT these wheels are lighter, prettier and incredibly complementary to the design of the DBS. While I am a fan of the polished look on silver, I would have had a different color choice should they have been made for another color DBS or my red one.

 

I believe most of the wheel consumers for aftermarket wheels are not the typical Aston Martin crowd. Most aftermarket wheels are sold to a young generation that like to make fairly normal cars stand out. The wheel companies like the urban setting and HDR grundge look. When the wheels look aggressive and slamed on an exotic, though it may be impracticle, it probably sales a lot of wheels for other types of vehicles. These wheel companies know their market probably better than we do and they love to showcase their products on great cars.

 

Yes EzCookin our target Market actually expands to a very large one which goes from 18 to 50 years of age.

One thing I do want to say is we would never setup a customers car with an agressive setup without knowing and being 120 percent sure that the setup will have no problems with rubbing or any other types of driving problems.

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw that. Knowing your customers...yup

 

Car looks amazing period, wouldn't change a thing at all

 

Yes that exactly what we think.

 

I actually think those wheels are beautiful. Maybe 1" smaller and without the lowering I think it would look excellent.

 

And you guys are right on point!

 

Ok, you asked.

They look like crap. The style of the wheel does not integrate with the style of the car in any way. The comically low profile tyres scream "inadequate". The spokes are spindly and fussy. The screw/rivet/whatever things around the rim are distracting and have no place on a flowing form like a DBS. The styling queues of those wheels are confused as hell. Rivets/bolts suggest works level racing hardware, the surface development and finish suggest show and styling. Which is is? The sheen and finish of the metal does not match the finish or surfacing quality of any part of the rest of the car, but is too close to feel like an intentional departure.

I'm sure the slam'd stance BS sells wheels. Well done. But these are not an improvement on the car and the lowering just amplifies the problem (exaggerated or not).

 

If you ignore the wheels, these are actually great photos of a great looking car! The color, the stance, the backgrounds - everything is nicely done. Kudos to the photographer.

 

It's a nice DB9...DBS Clone ..you forgot the CCM Rotors and larger calipers. Regardless cool wheels though

 

Its a DBS, I went with a Steel rotor conversion...me and you actually talked about this via PM when I was looking at alternate options from the CC rotors
