      Is this even legal?

      Has anyone ever bought or heard from the company "pro wheels"? Their gallery is all amazing cars like the Roadster Shop's Chevelle with their rims photoshopped on... Is that a copyright enfringement of some sort, I don't see a disclaimer that they were not their cars. It is a good photoshop - I will give them that - but for the prices they charge I would at least like to see what the rims actually look like actually on real cars. Here is the link:

      I know they have listings on ebay. If you do a search on ebay for any of the popular billet wheels there adds come up. Other than that I don't know much about them.

      I noticed that in their gallery as well . Lol . A customer of mine just bought a set from Frank at Prodigy . Took about a month longer than what they said , but they did come in last week and they are really nice wheels . I'm not sure why they don't have more of their own pictures though

      Wow that is cheesy! Get some real wheels fitted and mounted. Not a very classy way to advertise your product.

      However long you think your project will take, double it and you might be halfway right.

      I doubt it is illegal for them to use those vehicle images to photoshop their wheels on, but it is definately tasteless!

      That gallery is pretty cheesy and actually kind of new. I looked at the wheels a couple year ago before I decided to increase my budget. I've seen them on a chevelle at Detroit Autorama, they are not bad for the price. From my understanding they make wheels for other companies. I'll see if I can find the pic I took.
