DBS wheels on a Vantage Roadster? Why not......... :)

[AstonExige]

Been hankering after a set for ages, ever since I saw pictures of them fitted to Jibberingloon's fantastic looking coupe. Not to mention the OEM 19's looking like they need at least 20mm spacers to line up with the arches and not then not wanting to actually fit spacers! Well finally got my hands on them and totally fell back in love with the car. I was a bit concerned that I may need to lower it afterwards, but I took a number of measurements and its only increased in height by 4mm. So until I 100% know what I'm doing with the car over the next 6 months I can live with that.

Took some pictures, my attempt to do some before and after.










And a couple showing how perfect the offset is, nice and agressive without looking too VDub

Looks great

I think they look fab and transform the car, what have you done to the front grill, that also looks fab

[phil bird]

Looked good..... Now looks even better!!

They are high on my list after having seen them on Mark's incredible looking 4.3. I would assume they are a real pain in the neck to clean but the looks are just brilliant. Well done!

[Bincenzo]

Nice work, although I can confirm they are a complete PITA to clean......

[Jibberingloon]

Yes i have slight regrets in selling them........ FFS!!!! but i have too many sets of wheels!


here is a picture of them on my car.

Are the slats on the front grille plastikoted black?

Where is the best place for a splitter?

There is a black version of the 6-bars grill available. There is even an aftermarket "black pack" available from AM.

Yeah just plastikoted every other one. I just really like that stuff as it's hard wearing and you can just peel it off when you're bored.

Does look excellent. Gone from 19" to 20"? Any differences in ride/handling? And as confirmed, yes, they are a pain to keep clean!

I don't know, the lightweight forged ones he has on there now really suit the car and are much more in line with his current carbon fetish

Looks awesome, now all you have to do is get the rear lights clear... I think that looks better then the red in my opinion.
