I might be the last one

just waiting for christianjan's cousin to photoshop it for me, so i can see how it looks like on diamond black with tinted windows.

and just curious: since there is no wheel package what are you gonna get for tires? any idea yet?

Hey!



with a little help of Jan i tried it myself and for some reason it doesnt really look right

i know its a REALLY crappy photoshop, and if anyone can do better, please do, because i love those wheels.

but the chrome part from the wheels just doenst really look right compared to the other part, for it stands out too much.

maybe i just got it all wrong with photoshop and how it would look like actually, but like i said, if anyone can do it, so that its looks more real/ better, please do so.

Because looking at that picture id say no right now

I wouldn't say you got it all wrong, but I can say the contrast between the two isn't right... the wheels really do stand out too much, especially the polished lips. I guess going by the photoshop it'd be a hard decision for me too.

If it helps, I'm sticking them on the very same black finish you have... only diff is mines a w210. That means I've got more chrome trim then I'd care to have, and I've wondered how the wheels will contrast also. I decided it was to good a deal to pass on something unique. I see regular 5-spokes everywhere... I want to stand-out.

Yeah

i was hoping that the tint would ad some more black to the whole diamond black color ... so its diamond black, black windows and black wheels, but i didnt think the chrome would be so extensive

oh well. i guess i'll wait another couple of days but i think i would have to go back to my first wheels i had an eye on

the real rim on the car would not look that bright on the lip. the lip looks brighter because it was the photo used for the catalog.

I am already getting a headache because of this ... lol

now i made 2 pictures of the one i wanted before and i was like 100% sure, that this is the one im now going for, but then i saw cappa's picture thread (who is almost the same wheels as his group buy)





https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...ighlight=cappa

but then again his car is black and mine diamond black. now im actually back to the beginning ...

If anyone has serious photoshop skills, please help me out here.
maybe someone can rotate/flip the wheel so its straight and not angled. i cant do that with the little skill i have in photoshop.

sorry that i keep bugging and dont sign in the list, but i dont want to do something that i wont like afterwards.

Couple questions

Is there a hi-res pic of the wheels with the correct center? Was there a tire package option?(Someone asked previously, didn't see the answer.)

lets hope you make the right choice. yeah, the wheels wont look as bright as they do in real life. the wheels that are photoshopped dont have the shadowing like your car has in the picture. so yeah. also, my bad for not photoshopping it again, i've been busy
