Which Vantage S Wheel design?

[Titan the Robot]

Which of the two Vantage S wheel designs do you prefer, Wheel A or Wheel B?

[Stevejay]

Defineately wheel B

[douglas67]

Wheel A. I don't think there should be any black on a wheel. Wheel A is nicer either way.

Agree on both points.

Wheel A
Don't have a problem with having some black to highlight a wheel but design A is altogether cleaner to my eyes.

[JimboA]

Wheel A IMHO.

Your eye is drawn by the longer spikes of A which make the wheel look bigger than B. For me A every time.

Ooh, went through this a short while ago. Ended up with these:

I don't think the AM wheels are particularly attractive, but if pushed the A. Much nicer aftermarkets out there IMHO.

[J12KJR]

Out of interest is there a weight difference between the 2 designs, the design of A gives the impression of it being lighter.

[LordBretSinclair]

Definitely A but with black "innards" (not that I'm biased of course )

[mikey k]

A is the V2 sport pack wheel so lighter and wider
Better for grip and handling IME

Either, but add the black! I love my 'B-type' ones, although I was originally looking for the 'A-type', but as soon as I saw a pic of mine with gloss black, I knew what I wanted.

Clearly we all love our own more, so just look around for images (that's what I did), then go for whatever floats your boat!

I much prefer design A. They are my favourite OEM AM Vantage wheel.

And my old set just so happen to be for sale in the classifieds...

A in anthracite is the V12V winter wheel.

It's also the lightweight wheel option for the GT/N430. Costs an additional $3,800 over the standard B wheel here in the US.

I don't usually like the B style, but it sure does look a lot better with the gloss black IMHO.

Agree with that, looks fantastic with the gloss black inner.
