V12V swapping for V12V S wheels

Hi I am going to buy some S wheels.

Can anyone confirm the offset of the wheels I am getting rid of vs the offset for the new set?

Thanks!

I don't know about the off set and the fitment issues but those are gorgeous. The dealer should be able to tell you. My dealer help me with any questions I had when I swapped for new rims on 2007 my Vantage for newer 2012 split spoke light weight rims.

They are both pretty close, off by a few mm at most. You should have zero problems... But warning you the wheels will sit very sucked in (high offsets). Now for some reason the DB9 wheels have a much lower offset and push the wheel out for a much better flush look.

Good choice; the recent trend of polished face and black painted wheels makes me a little nauseous.

Thanks! agreed on the polished face with black accents. I think the wheel would look better one colour.

I found this advert suggesting that the offsets are the following, can anyone confirm?

2x 9.0"x19" offset 51
2x 11.0"x19" offset 68

Why would you doubt the seller, being they are a premier AM dealer?

haha I didn't spot that!

I guess I shouldn't stereotype Ebay sellers and take everything I read with a 'pinch of salt' !

Not so hard when you use DHL Express. I'm restoring a Alfa Spider Veloce and have sourced many parts through Alfaholics who ship via DHL.
