DBS wheels on a V8V

I considering getting a set of DBS wheels for my 2009 V8V. The wheels are 8.5" x20" with 245/35 P zeros for the front and 11x 20" with 295x35 P zeros for the rear with a 54et. My question is will these wheels make the tires line up with the edge of the body. I know that they will bolt on. I just don't want them to sticking out of the wheel wells. Thanks.

Jibberingloon has them on his and they look great. One of the best wheel setups I have seen on a V8V.

That looks stunning. I would love to see a shot from behind, to get an idea of how the line up with the body. Thanks for posting that picture. That is the same wheels I am looking at.

Anything special required? Adaptors? Will the offset push the wheels out to the edge of the fenders?

Thanks to Jibberingloon for posting pictures of his gorgeous Aston Martin. Stopped to eat on the way back from Boca and took a quick cel phone picture of our Aston with it new DBS wheels. Will take some more when it is light out and after she has a bath.

I love these wheels... but the DBS also had a 5 spoke wheel option so I had my dealer price them out... Over $14K was the quote... his cost was probably $11K. Needless to say I didn't order them.
Gene G... How hard do you plan on driving your Aston? Let us know if there are any rubbing issues under heavy compression of the suspension.
Now all you need is the carbon fiber lip spoiler.
