During the last chop (the Evo for the Round 3) I've got a lot of problems finding a good donor for rims, so I've decided to try a new way for make them... Illustrator and Photoshop...
This is a preliminary shot of the two pieces wheels in Photoshop before all refinements.
C&C are welcome as usual and hope you like the idea.

Interesting... Gonna see what will be the final result.

first off all if you use google and set the size to above 1600x.. minimum and you take enogh time with words to try and find cars you must find great donors , at least i do

the rendered wheel looks nice but so far i'm afraid it all look quite warped , well most important will be the outer ring and hart since you want to use them for chopss so its not really a problem ...

but what i'm trying to say is that you really should get a really really superb result to beat the c&p rims
i always use c&p rims but alter stuff on them or make wheels from 2-3 donors and swap outer rings / harts and stuff

i love the idea and what your doing just not sure if you really can get a result that is gonna look suporb on a car / chop

off-course i hope i'm wrong because taht means you did it right

i would def. at least pursue this and continue because its cool to do and i', curious on the result

in the end the best way i think is to use the ori rim of the car you want to make rims for , use that as a base / template , then you have the correct angle and can overlay your new design

keep us posted

I're totally right Rich but I want to try some different way to do a chop...

More particulars added and now I try to make it more real
