Default PhotoShop Wheels On My Skoda Please??

**I know this is the wrong section, but replies in the photoshop forum take a while and I might buy these wheels today**

Hi everyone, could a photoshop expert put the following wheels onto my Skoda. The current wheels are 17inch and the new ones are 18inch. Im looking to buy them, but Im not sure if they would suit me car!!

It is a VRS Bud, but 18's would look alot better than 17's and they don't do the standard rims in 18's sadly

Sorry, i can see the picture now......so the ones on the right are the ones on it?

If so then i'd say the 18's would look better....but the ones in the siggy are defo the nicest, even if they are smaller

Sorry mate, it's cos i'm at work and they firewall everything.

Personally i'd keep those ones and lower the car a little.

Or maybe get RS6 style rims which always look good ( but a little common )

Keep the standard ones.

Get them done black if you want a change.

miles better.

Changing the wheels was the one thing i never thought about doing to my old vrs as they're good as standard imo

Tiff, what suspension did you use? Im looking at the Koni Str stuff as everyone on BriSkoda recommends them! Problem IMO is the standard rims still look small

Bud, RS4/6 wheels are on way tooooo many cars Sad tho as I like the new RS4's

Mike, I think the standard rims look good, but they are too small IMO. Want something to fill the arches a bit better

I used the Koni stuff mate......... Rides very nice on it too

I know what you mean about going for the bigger wheels......... I am putting some 18" Merc AMG rims on my VW Passat Estate at the minute....with coilovers so i can get it just right..........And its just my runaround
