Re: Rims For My Aston Martin DB9

Keep the factory wheels because the simple but elegent look suits the design of the car better than the rather fuzzy design of the aftermarket wheels.

Im glad some of you guys have posted their input which is what i was looking for, thanks for everyones sentiments.

Factory it is.
But you'll get the fuzzy dice right?

Re: Rims For My Aston Martin DB9

The aftermarket rims look pretty cool, but if you go for them make sure to keep the Aston emblem, else not worth it.

Thanks, Alx!

Thanks perhaps i'll just tie two tiffany boxes together and simply put some dots on it with a sharpie.

Thanks for the compliments on the vehicle, it really is just a stunning car, and a intense drive. You feel like a celebrity every where you go with all the thumbs up and people snapping pics. Extremely pleasurable and enjoyable to drive. I got tons of pics in the thread in owners gallery they are high resolution, i took a few pics itself but nothing spectacular. Im no photographer and my pics never come out the way i want them, no sharpness no detail. Obviously not my forte. But non the less i have some pics and will certainly post them, Canada was WONDERFUL had a great time, great drinks and great gambling. Got there in four and a half hours. The trip was 320 miles or so... you can certainly do the math . Will post pics of the trip and the car over the weekend hopefully. But everything is just great. Very pleased.
