The hard part with a lot of these photochops is that the wheels are photographed straight on. The picture of the wheel here is taken while standing above and just slightly to the side, and it's obvious when you drop it in there. You can change the scaling to get it more truly circular than elliptical (I actually used a calculator... I feel so scientific!), but there is still some geometry distortion from the 3D object when it's off center.

I upsized the wheels... perhaps too much. I think I like Mr. Bullet's rendition better. He wins AGAIN! Just wait... next time... NEXT TIME!!

nice! yes its true about the off center thing but i understand all that. im really liking these wheels. they are off a mazda suv. think they will fit? they are 18" 114 bolt pattern with a 50mm offset. that offset seems crazy but then again i dont fully understand what an offset is!

yeah, another thing iv done to "fix" that is take a spoke, or half of the wheel and copy it rotate it.

Meh. Those rims just don't look good on the car.
