[h1]Changing a Cars Wheels[/h1]Another car manip tutorial, this time on changing boring old wheels for some top notch rims.

First things first, the car and were going to take the rims from this car
(an important note, When your looking for a set of rims to put on your car, try and pick a car that's at a similar angle, or else the wheels will look flat and it won't look nice)

OK, open both pictures in Photoshop,

1st Picture we want to concentrate on is the Doner car, Draw a selection around the rim of the wheel, My picture is a side view so I used the Eliptical Marquee tool, (other pictures with a more angled shot of the car you may have to use the pen tool).


OK next hit Ctrl+C or go Edit>Copy, then select the other picture that you are going to put the Rims on and press Ctrl+V or Edit>Paste.

OK, Now your Rim is ready to be fitted to the car, Press Ctrl+T and drag the Rim so that it sits over the old wheel then using the transform anchors shape the wheel to exactly fit the old wheel.
(This is the point where you can make the wheel a little bigger than the old one if that's the look you want)


Once you have the shape press enter/return or click on the Tick in the top right hand corner of the screen.
That's it done, now just repeat the steps for the other wheels and you done it.

This is a very easy car to do, more angled cars can be a bit more tricky to get the shape right, but it's still the exact same steps.

End Result
