The junior vehicle in the Aston Martin line-up has received a new set of rims that offer a lightweight construction and an aggressive design.
The Aston Martin V8 Vantage has been fitted with a set of 20 inch alloy rims coming from Barracuda Wheels. The Tzunamee wheels come in a 9.0 x 20 inch size for the front axle and in a 10.0 x 20 inch size for the rear one.
“Aston Martin -a brand as typically English as afternoon tea, or horse racing at Ascot. The small model of the classic English brand, the V8 powered Vantage, is entering into a stylistically dynamic liaison with the TZUNAMEE rim, produced by the innovative wheel manufacturer BARRACUDA WHEELS from Stein am Rhein,” stated the press release.
Customers can choose between three color schemes: Higloss black, real chorme and white polished. Barracuda Wheels has chosen to showcase the new rims on a classic green Vantage V8.
“With its striking drop center and secondary spokes, which enable a lightweight design with high static strength, the TZUNAMEE wheel has an extremely aggressive look. It imparts breathtaking design and lightweight athleticism - precisely the attributes that characterize Aston Martin,” stated the press release.
The V8 Vantage uses a 4.7 liter V8 unit that offers 426 hp at 7,300 Nm and a maximum torque of 346 lb-ft (469 Nm) at 5,000 rpm. The engine, which is matted to a six speed automatic gearbox, allows the 3,595 lbs (1631 kg) vehicle to leave the 62 mph (100 km/h) mark behind in 4.9 s and offer a top speed of 180 mph (290 km/h).
