DBS Wheels for Vantage

I have a feeling this question has been posed before. However, does anyone know if factory DBS wheels fit a V8 Vantage? I'm getting ready to get new wheels and want wider rear tires. I have my eye on HRE Monos (P40 and P49) but they only come 10 inch wide. Has anyone upgraded to wider wheels and tires and can you post pictures please?

according to this thread and moogle's input, apparently they don't fit:

I questioned the upgrade of the tires some time ago but did not receive too much info at all. The Aston would look soo much better with wider tires... specially the rears.

It seems that I was wrong on this issue and they DO FIT, as per immage shown in above mentioned thread. My question is, can you keep the rims and go up on tire sizes at all? Maybe 290s at the rear and 270s on the front without messing with the stability of the car?

i think it will look crap cause the standard wheels on the DBS are large enough - i would start to look for the N400 side skirts - that's a IMHO need option

You can barely increase the tire size on the standard 9.5" wheel. 285 is max. The DBS wheel may allow 305's.

Anyone know the cost of the DBS wheels?
