If you want to capitalize on Sol's Passive, you also need to look at his W and consider the Cost vs Reward of the spell. The W is a very strong spell since it creates an area of damage far bigger and upstanding but only if you have the mana to burn and mantain it.

Your build doesn't have any mana to sustain such things and going for Starsurge and stunning will only get you so far if you wish to use your passive. There are FAR better tanks too if you wish to have a guy who's whole death-zone is a CC, like Nautilus. Aurelion Sol role is more about doing damage over time with his areas and spells while also negating enemy engages and movements with Starsurge and Ultimate.

This is why I say that Aurelion Sol can't possibly go with a Rylai into Full Tank and expect him to do as much as a traditional Sol MidBuild with Mana and Movement Speed. You either can do Stuns every few seconds or you can use your stars to do damage and inhibit Enemy movement.
