Default Photoshop help needed

so if there's anyone out there that is good at photoshop i could use your help, i have a red 1992 coupe, i'm about to put c6 (or c5, i can't remember) 5 spoke wheels on it. It'll more or less look like this one

I want to know what these wheels all black and black with a red stripe around the outside of the rim would look like, any other suggestions would be nice as well

May be beyond my skill level (I knew you'd ask). I'll make another cup of coffee and give it a try.

15 minutes later...

Oooh, learned to use the path function:

I had a set of those wheels on my car when I bought it but I felt they just didn't look right so I got the z r-1 style and am very pleased with them. But hey, it's your car and if you like them go for it. I wouldn't paint them black though, you can buy them smoked chrome. I sold them a couple months ago for $450 with the tires.

My neighbor has those exact type wheels on his `85. Looks great!
