Default PhotoShop Anyone ?

This may seem a little weird , but i have a buddy who has his own shop He just got his new spray booth , and he does a decent job with his work. I have a 97 Nassau Blue with wagons , I do not like black wheels , so i do not care to paint them all black. I will probably buy chrome z06's , but just out of curiousity what would it look like if i painted the wheels the same color as the car (nassau blue) or if i painted them nassau blue with a few red stripes running throguh them ? has anyone ever done this ? the only time i would use them is if i were going to take the car to the strip , (once or twice a year maybe)
thanks , heres a pic

Kinda looks like overspray.

I'd leave them alone.

if you selected colorized when on the HUE/SATURATON window it would allow you to get rid of the green tint that yo have in your photochop.
I end up with the green on my first try also.

Ha, not loving the blue , now i realize why not to many people paint the color of thier wheels the same as the car. I think i will just stick with z06's , and keep the wags for the track. thanks for the help

It doesnt look too bad but my personal opinion I wouldnt do it but it would be different and you would probably be the only one with it. Here is the one I did.
