I am not a fan of coloured rims, I think that the colour of the MS design rims would be pretty good on Steel Grey :cool:

Personally, I think the white wheels would look ok on a track car with livery all over it, but not on a road vehicle.  Just my opinion tho!

I think white wheels can look o/k on a white car if it's the same shade of white.. But would probably look a bit "dated" these days ...

and a bit odd on a steel grey car.. I.M.O.O.

NOOO!  No Way.  Sorry, I just don't think it would work.

There are some mags that are "gunmetal" in colour....   they would ROCK on Steel Grey I reckon.

(Lexus put some of them on their is250 that is close to steel grey, I think they look SCHMICK !)

Hey Dazz, do use the actual photoshop program to manipulate the images?  I've never used it as I've always used GIMP which rocks, and its free.

From what I've seen photoshop might be a bit more user friendly, but I've had some real good results with GIMP.  I've only ever used it to paste workmates photos onto movie posters, adverts etc and they come out really good.

I've got  Photoshop ES and Corelle Suite 12 and Photoimpact 10 and Photoshop 9 and some others but I do almost every thing with photoshop 7 because I find it easy to use.. :wink:

Like you say some of these programs could be more user friendly...
