295/30/20 tyres on vantage

Hello

Who is running these? I have seen a few pics on various wheel websites of people running them but they are an inch bigger in diameter than standard so +5%. Does this cause any issues?

20" wheels would be ideal but going down to a 25 side wall seems a compromise.

Thoughts?

I do have them on my 2013 Vantage. no problem at all even with VAP lowering springs 3/4 inch all corners.
I'm using 8.5 X 20 in front 255 30 20 & 11 X 20 in rear with 295 30 20 Michelin PSS 4

That thing looks incredible. I'm not usually a fan of black wheels, but on yours its perfect. We're going to need some more pics though.

Thank you. Yes, I really like these wheels, gone through few sets until I found these. For me it's prefect and best part is that it's Aston OEM wheels.

295/30r20 here as well on the back. DBS wheels and stock suspension. I don't think you'll find anyone with a 295/25.

its 305/25 I’ve seen lots of. Checking my tyres vs v12s tyres mine are actually a large overall diameter so going to 295/30/20 is actually less overall difference than going to 295/30/19 of a v12
