Doubt you'll be able to. Requires too much positive offset for wires. There was one company making wires for early xk8, but those were not as wide and not as much offset. Be interested if you can find someone to provide them.

If you are talking about true wire wheels, I doubt you will find any that fit. Most true wires require inner tubes since it is too hard to get a perfect seal. Ferrari’s used to run on Borrani wires. They are still made but primarily for older cars.

If if you are interested, here is their website.....

If you are trying to get an old school look, you might be able to get BBS wheels. They were the hot set up in the 70’s....

I know that not everybody likes black wheels, or non-OEM wheels on Astons, but Jason Panell here in the Atlanta area put these on my DB9 yesterday and they are exactly what I was looking for.

The offset is a bit more than I expected but I love the aggressive look and really love how the car drives (replaces OEM wheels and original 10 year old tires).

They do custom set-ups also.
