No photoshop on the bottom one. I only changed the hue from too much sunlight. ANyhow. When you said "nice concept" i thought you didn't mean those wheels existed on that car.
I bought the wheels from www.indendesign.de
Anyway, still confused on what your orignal point was.

Superb machine!
I live near RENNtech and I was there recently for the MBCA event.
I was given some assessments on my wife's new C230K.
They won a Best of Show in Miami at the end of last year for their SL55 AMG.
Is yours the 575 hp - 602 ft-lbs. of torque version?
I wonder what these guys could do with the new SL65 AMG V-12 which is coming with 612 hp and 730 ft-lbs. of torque?
800 horses maybe? Hmm...

SL Shank, Could you please post a picture untouched??? Just to see what the tires really look like.
I know you are probably trying toenhance the vehicle's look, but it is taking a toll on the appereance of the tires.

Tough crowd on mbworld. I like it like that. No detail left unnoticed. 
Nobody noticed it on the other forum.
What else did you do to the car besides wheels? Did renntech touch the engine? Or is only a badge? Anyway awesome machine.

It is photshopped...I took a look at the metadeta as well.
Does Not appear to be the real thing.
Looks good though considering all the efforts.
PS...Creating shading et al..will NOT cut the original image...nice try though.

"Post ******" Aside
vraa:
I'm not following you. How/why is pocholin a "post *****"?
And just how does this offset his acute (and accurate) observations?
In my view he's being neither "tough," nor "hating" or anything else, beyond simply being keen with a healthly degree of attention to detail. This is sound with me.
Maybe he feels (with good cause) that someone's pulling a fast one, this does not mean the speed of the car.
If the car was photoshoped, then its presentor should state as much. If this is denied, then a discussion will take place. This is part of an alert and honest forum.
The car is a nice car and everyone applaudes this. However, creativity should follow with honesty. No?
Consistently then, pocholin's observations have their rightful purpose. After all, sharing our cars here is what we do. The authenticity of these photos is something we should genuinely expect.
The car looks great, despite its visually obscured wheel images. No one denies this. Yet the question should be made about the photo editing and it was. Like I said, alert forum.
My version of food for thought, anyway.

I can't believe this topic of the pictures are going off in tangent. The car is real, so is the wheels. What he picked up on photoshopping.... I was screwing around trying to make the BACKGROUND with some filter effects. I have made posts like this before with my sl500 - like below, and you can see the background has some effects. What Pochelin was implying, was that the car or wheel on the car is not real. It is indeed real. So when I decided not to do the effects (lack of time) then I perhaps forgot to fix the perimiter of the outline which I tried to mask using the lasso tool. EITHER WAY, just confused on what point he was trying to make. THE CAR AND WHEEL IS REAL. Hell, email Joe Inden at inden design. He sold me the wheels.
