DrCollie:


Also as per their specification sheet: http://www.acealloywheel.com/downloa...Applicaton.pdf

The highest offset they offer for fronts is 40mm, and 45mm rear. You could do 38mm fronts (19x8.5"), and 45mm rear (19"x10") and it should be good enough. its alittle bit more aggressive, but its doable at 10". 10.5" would be too much at 45mm IMO. This would be the equivalent of 15mm spacers up front, and 20mm spacers rear on stock wheels roughly. Anything more would be too much.

In my opinion this is by far the best offset option. You can run more aggressive up front b/c the 19's still retain the 8.5" width and you do need to push out the front wheels quite a bit for the right look. Because you are increase rears by half an inch you go less aggressive on the offset in the rear (highest numerical offset, counter intuitive ).

On the V12s you would have to run 20" because you need to run 10.5" rear for grip (at least 305s in rear, you can even squeeze 315s on a 10.5 but its tight). So on the V12s again same concept, highest offset possible for 20x9 @ 40mm & 20x10.5 @ 35mm (although 35mm is still too low, you really need to be running a 45mm in rear with 10.5. Perhaps they can do a custom setup in this size for astons). In Fact, I bet you those 20s in the pic are 35mm rear offset, and you can see its still too wide. You need at least another 10mm more off offset to bring the wheel in more about 10mm as previously stated.

Hope that helps

BUY BUY BUY haha
But is that MSRP or wholesale? I am rather fond of the Mesh 7 on their web site.

Yes that does help! Hugely. Thank you. I would like the 20's as they fill out the wheel wheel better - but boy, the tire aspect ratio gets short when you do that and they are 25 series in the rear. That's going to really compromise the ride quality.19's make more sense and I can use my existing tires and TMPS sensors with them.

So I ordered a staggered set of these tonight - from Element Wheels. $ 1,230 for the whole set, shipped. That's not bad. Going with your recommendations 007 V. on the 19's.

Wow what a steal!! You will not be disappointed, the concave look with spokes going to the edge and proper offset will make the wheels look bigger than the stock ones. 25 series tire is asking for trouble, you made the right choice!

Is it possible to do 19x9.0 and 19x10.5 rear (super concave)?

That would be the ideal setup IMO for the car.

Overall, the wheel & tire combo would still be lighter than stock. I would recommend if you run them, get the pilot super sports. The wheels are gorgeous, so they are worth it. I would recommend getting the 19s just to get better tire availability and ride quality IMO
Or you could run the sport pack wheels with the pilot super sports

That is actually a great setup for 19", but until we get more demand for them, we won't be bringing it in until then.
