Fallen for a DB11

[Murph7355]

The std wheels don't help at all. I also think it needs to be lower.

There's a picture of a red one with HRE wheels that I think looks good.

Not sure about the interior too.

Nice upgrade from a DB9

Thanks - and each to their own!

Not usually a fan of diamond cut black wheels but these look nice on a darker coloured car. No accounting for taste!

I drove a DB11 recently and OMG it is very rapid indeed - I mean seriously quick. Had some strange slop in the brake pedal and ultimately I prefered my olde fashioned NA with its very linear usable power delivery (even if its 100bhp down) but it was one hell of a machine and yes they do look even better in the flesh. Congrats!

Thanks Ken!

Aaron made me exchange my V8 Roadster for my V12S Roadster. Nice chap.

Looks beautiful! In the flesh they are definitely better - hope Saturday goes well!!

Cheers! - I'll update after then :-) The fact they're so much nicer in the flesh confuses me.... I think it's something to do with the angles...!

These wheels really seem to generate polarised reactions. I'm not sure why but I think they're just fine. Enjoy your test drive OP but it sounds like the deal is already done

Ha ha ,my thoughts exactly.

If Aaron has read this thread and he probably has , the no discount button has been pressed.

Wheels do nowt for me.

Red embroidered headrest is the final nail in the coffin .

Apart from that it's alright.

For me, these are the least attractive OEM wheels I've seen on any Aston in many, many moons. I just don't get wheels that are directional; these look like something you'd see on a Hot Wheels car. But at least wheels are easily changed.

When I read comments like these on a another member´s car that he is probably very proud of, I am seriously considering if I should introduce my car here at all. Could as well continue reading silently instead of contributing.

Thankfully there is still time to consider this until delivery.

No one rejects a beautiful lady for her shoes Emillo

Congrats on the car looking forward to seeing it!

Interestingly the wheels were the first thing I loved....and the headrest really sold it!

Same!!

Horses for courses.

Don't worry, there's an even bigger group that appreciate personal taste, or try not to comment if something really isn't to their liking.

Absolutely right.

Hi. I don’t usually post, just be nosey. But I have to say I have had my DB11 for 6 weeks and it is an amazing car. I have owned a DB9 and other performance cars, but have to say the 11 is the best by far.
It has helped bring AM into the future which it so badly needed.

Enjoy your DB11 and congratulations.

Oh and agree entirely about db11s looking much better in the flesh. No idea why that is
