Smile I could use some photoshop color help

I just brought home a great set of early sevens in their original finish. I love these even better than the original sevens that were on the car when I bought it (polish/paint).

Here is where I could use some help. I'm going to repaint the car in the original silver and I can't decide which wheel look I'm going to like better. These are my two choices. The sevens might get a RSR re-finish or maybe just a repaint. The anodize is in amazing condition. Could someone change the color of my car in both photos to silver please?

And before you guys jack me up, I know the low profile tires look like dog fuch. They were on the rims and are strictly roller tires

TIA and cheers,

Dang I hate it when I do that.

Black is VERY difficult to Photoshop to a good silver. You'd probably be better off finding a similar car and comparing.

However, I CAN offer you an opinion ( ) ..go with the RSRs with better tires.

very difficult to replace color in photoshop when the color you're replacing is also the background color. In the darkest areas, it's hard to see where the car stops and background starts.

Gottcha guys, thanks . I guess it's time to trawl. Seller's remorse is a *****. The only good thing is this set of 7s cost me less than the set I sold. I do admit they almost tempt me to keep the car black. That is one sweet look with RSR finish.

Michael,

What about 7x15 in the back and 6x15 (deep) in the front. Or alternatively just 6x15 (deep) all around. Of course original or RSR finish.

Well, I am going to have two sets of wheels. One is the sevens and the other is a set of deeps. I am going to have two of the deeps widened. I'm most confused about the finish to pick for the deeps.

I'll have to take a picture with a deep six on the front and the seven on the back. I never thought of that. The flat six, yeah...
