what's the tyre size on your "aston-martin-look-porsche wheels" ?

there are replicas on ebay for a nice price, but I am still not sure for the quality and strength of those 19"

285/35mm rears and 225/40mm fronts...mine are 18" ...I will go 235 on fronts next time.

BTW...I have never seen another 928 with these wheels. Which could be a good thing or a bad thing. I like the looks just a pain to keep clean. I did find a thin wheel cleaner tool that helps alot.

BTW AGAIN... these are offered in the 19" size on most 2008 and 2009 Porsches.

A safe way to go looks and performance-wise would be some 17" cup1 or cup2. Try to find some oem 7.5 et 65 front with 9 et55 rear. Tires will be much cheaper than 18 or 19" wheels.
