I know most of you guys don't like Bling Bling rims, but I do. I Photoshopped these Giovanna Corsicas on my car. I plan to get a set of these in 17" and some wheel adapters when I get enough cash.

 

Well, they might look alright in 17's. I'm not diggin the 22's though.

 

definately blingin' in that pic they look too big to be 17's

 

yeah look a little big in the pic but i like em other than that.....heres my new rims....
bub

 

I like bling bling wheels, but most of them I see are some of the ugliest designs, most of which have wheels that look completely solid.

 

You have any pics of those on the car? They look really nice. Also what size are they?

 

Nevermind, I saw your sig.

 

Those are some sweet looking rims Bub.

 

The ones in the left of the sig look best.

 

no argument there...
good pick of rims for that car...i'd say no bigger then 16" or they take away from the car

 

I would say no bigger than 18's. 17's are the perfect size IMO.

 

I like it!

 

thanks for the compliments guys.....well right now my car is being painted but hopefully on sunday or early next week i will have them on. ill be posting pics of the "new" car in the app and detailing board so look out for me...
bub

 

I thought about 16's so I could keep the same tires, but the smallest size made is 17.

 

i wanted to get 17s in my rim but the damn price jumped so much and i figured that much money wasnt worth just an inch
bub

 

true.. true.. but 17s look a lot bigger than 16s to me. more than an inch. i know they're not but it looks it.

plus with my 17's i was able to get 40% aspect ratio tires (255/40ZR17's) so that was added insentive. just costly costly costly.

 

yeah thats true also......my 16's look a lot bigger than my old 15's

 

Be prepared to dish out some serious cash for those rims! I just bought a set of 18" KMC Stealths and they ran me $950 a rim!! That's Canadian of course. The rubber is 245/35/18 all around. I'll have pics up soon but you can see the rims at www.kmcwheels.com in the truck/suv section.

 

wow, 950 a rim for the ones that PontiacRacing wants?? those rims are cool but not for that price...

 

I dunno how much the rims pontiacracing wants are, 950 was what I paid for the rims I have on my car, there different. I was just warning him that there's a reason there called bling bling rims, they aren't cheap!!

 

those r nice rims........i love the rims that i chose though and they werent too expensive either

 

Anyone wanna photoshop these rims onto my merkur?

 

Deep dish 16" wheels look larger than face mounted 16's. I only 16's that are deep dished. I like to see more rim.

 

yeah same here, i like to see more rim also... mine arent really deep dish but it was hard finding rims that i like that had a little rim showing
bub

 

Heres that quick Photoshop.

 

Cool, thanks. I know those pictures aren't great. The rims are at an angle and the car is too small but I get the idea. I think it looks pretty good actually.

 

You're welcome. They definitely look better than the rims on it before.

 

I see people do this photochopping a lot can anyone tell me how to do this or what the software is. Can I buy the software or download it? I have a couple of things I would like to check out on my car. Thanks.

 

YES! Those are the rims I'm buying this summer for my Eclipse. Expensive, but 15lbs for an 18" x 8.5" wheel?!?!? SWEET!

I've got a red eclipse and plan on getting the gunmetal center.

 

Yeah I definitely want the gunmetal center if I ever get them. I'd reccomend doing some research first though. I've been reading a lot of guys are having problems with them bending.

 

more than likely they're using adobe photshop to photo-chop cars. its a proffesional quality photo editor and if you really wanna be able to use it... i'd recomend classes. but for simple stuff like slapping on hoods and rims, you could probably figure it out on your own. the big downside - really pricey. you could probably download it on kazaa or something if you don't have moral objections to stealing... but i didn't say that! i've got it at work and i go in and play with it there.

- doc

 

Thanks I will give it a try on kazaa. It won't be the first time!

 

as a more legal solution, try this.

Go to Adobe's site and download the tryout version of Photshop 6. The only difference between it and the full version is you cannot save. This is easily negated though, as previewing it in a web browser allows you to save with your web browser. Try it. It works and its legal.

 

Hey man, you got the rims and tires...when ya going to put them on your camaro?
