I understand people have their own taste, so by insulting other people's ride is really not a great way of steering the owners into the right direction. Not only that, it'll just create drama. But your ride is very nice looking though. Plans for any body kit or an exhaust in the near future? I also think that a few CF exterior touches will be pretty nice as well. Cheers....

Thanks, it only took me 4 seconds to think that up:
- 1 Second to view your wheels
- 1 Second to vomit unmercifully
- 1 Second to make the connection
- 1 Second to post my findings

The feeling is mutual. You have your opinion on what you think looks good, even if it is some ghetto *** rims.

Take care.

Nope, they weren't Z owners, atleast not to my knowledge, and that's exactly my point.. Alot of the guys on here think they're experts and that their opinion is the greatest thing since sliced bread, cause they "are Z owners". But I don't see the relevance. I don't own an Aston Martin DB9 Volante, but I know I like the way it looks. And to the everyday joe who just looks at a car and either likes it or does not, when they see my car with the vomit inducing wheels on it, alot of them seem to like it... Contrary to the majority of what I'm seeing here...

I would love to know what makes them "ghetto" though! Am I being stereotyped because of my wheels? Does this mean I can't play my rap music anymore? Ha!

Here's the thing. The DB9 is in a different class. People from all backrounds admire it.

Your car is a Z. Other than the enthusiasts, most people don't really know about modding this car. Would your rather trust the opinion of some person who can't tell the difference between pos wheels and good ones, or people who have seen many more z's, KNOW the car, and have been in the community for a long time?

I guess that's my whole point. The only opinion I care about when it comes to making any changes to my car are mine.. If I like it, then I'm cool with it, whether anybody else likes it or not.. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad when I hear other people say they like it too, but when other people say they don't like it, I'm really not bothered.. You'll notice I didn't ask for opinions on my original post. I just said check it out. Even still, I knew I'd get those "I don't like them" posts, because they're not the typical wheels you see on all these other guys Zs.....
