Talking Factory 18" Vantage wheel info

I'm in the market for a set of OEM wheels for my 2007, and I'm having trouble figuring out what was available. I'm looking for a set of 7-spoke wheels, and I'm trying to figure out if this style came in both 18" and 19" variations, or just 19".

This is what the manual specifies:

Stock
Front - 18x8.5 - 235/45-18
Rear - 18x9.5 - 275/40-18

Winter
Front - 18x8 - 225/45-18
Rear - 18x9 - 255/40-18

Option
Front - 19x8.5 - 235/40-19
Rear - 19x9.5 - 275/35-19

Sport
Front - 19x8.5 - 245/40-19
Rear - 19x9.5 - 285/35-19

Does anyone know more about the 18" wheels that were offered on these cars? I've never seen the winter setup anywhere but the manual.

Very hard to source a set, 95% were ordered with the option of 19" wheels. I've seen a few but they definitely look too small in the wheel wells compared with the 19s.

Interesting! I guess the 18s don't come in that 7-spoke style? I didn't realize so many were specced with 19s.

Try BC Forged and see what they can offer you. I KNOW you said OEM. But for the money nothing can beat the BC forged wheels. IMHO. they can also custom make you a set if desired to your look that you want. Just an idea.

If you look on page 58 of the Bible (The Definitive Guide to Aston Martin ) you will see a small pic of the OEM 18' wheels (They're 10 spoke ) and an explanation of why almost everyone opted for the 19" 7 spoke wheels, also pictured. Doesn't look like there was an 18' 7 spoke design.

I'm not sure about the 'mutt's nuts' part; (is that like the 'bee's knees'?) but they're 5 spoke in the picture., and obviously 18", and Tremelune is looking for a 7 spoke 19"

I have a set of OEM 19's that came with my 2007 V8 Vantage. I replaced them with a refurbished set, but if you are interested let me know - they will need some minor refurbishment and that will be reflected in the price.
