19" V-Spoke Graphite Diamond Turned

http://www.astonmartin.com/en/cars/the-vantage-range/v8-vantage-coupe/accessories/wheels

I looked at the AM website. They only show the 19" V-SPOKE SILVER DIAMOND TURNED wheels. I thought there was also a graphite version? Was it discontinued?

I'm not sure if they were discontinued but I might have a set if you are interested.

I like the graphite V spoke too. The silver ones seem a little bland. I think some of the cars had the graphite V spoke. It might just be missing from the Aston Martin website or maybe discontinued. But I will let the owners chime in on this.

I bought a set of these from my dealer last year. They had one more set at the time. I think they were around $3200 for just the 4 wheels. I was told that these are what come with the car when you order the sport suspension.

Is the V spoke and the 10 spoke diamond the same exact size that will be interchangeable on the 19" tires?

My new V8V came with silver Vspoke wheels. Considered changing them to the 10 spoke
but the original equipment VSpokes are growing on me.
Ron's wheels are very good looking. I did call his dealer regarding purchasing a set.
They weren't very helpful.
They did offer graphite V Spoke wheels as an extra cost option on my Vantage.
I do believe that the 10 Spoke and V Spoke are identical in size

That is odd that my dealer did not help you out. Did you talk to Charley he is the Parts department Manager ? I know that my my stock 19" tires fit the new rims perfectly. I also knwow that at the time that I purchased my rims about eight months to a year ago they did have one more set in stock.

Where is the best and cheapest place to get the 10 spoke graphite diamond turned wheels, outside of the AM dealer? And what are you guys find is the easiest way logistically? Do you just ship the new rims to the tire shop and have them swap it out? And then what do you do with your old ones if you don’t have a truck to carry the old wheels back?

Just keep looking online to find a deal. Ship to a shop, call an Uber SUV or Van to drive them home.

For price reference, do you guys know how much they are brand new from the dealer?

Probably better value if I get a tire shop to refinish the V spoke to the graphite diamond finish so at least it looks 2 tone. The silver ones look too plain. If anyone has a good wheel refinishing store in Orange County southern CA, please let me know. I started calling some stores but workers asked me if it’s gunmetal or graphite or brushed aluminum. Makes me think they don’t really know the color.

I remember one member posted that their AM was damaged from the tire shop lifting the car. That worries me since I go to America’s Tire for tires.
