Well, how about this: Can any of you PS experts photoshop the aftermarket rims Alex posted on his car and then we'd see which ones would look better...   |

Well either way you go the rims will suite the car. The factory are more elegant and i find the aftermarket a little sportier. personally I would put on some aftermarket wheels if it was my car. Beautiful car you have there   |

I'm not sure, pick the ones you like better. Btw, how about 5 spoke ones from new DB9? They are also factory ones and look great. |

Honestly it doesn't matter, go with what looks best on your car. All I will say is this, no matter what you choose but for the love of god please don't ruin your car by buying some damn chrom rims or spinners...just dont. |

No problem Just lowered it slightly and increased the wheel size a bit in this pic, just for reference. And normaly you would see the brake disc behind the rim but that was too hard and too much work  I wouldn't chose anything unlss I was 100% sure I'd like the final result. |
