Well im a pc numpty who cannot fathom his paintshop pro so i could do with some help from the photoshop gods on ph... im looking for a set of wheels for my tvr griffith,currently has some non standard 16" rims which im looking to change to 17" jobbies,i just would like to see them virtually on the car before i decide to commit to them.... i have two side ish on pics of the car,and one wheel pic without a tyre fitted,though the wheel is silver,and id like it done in anthracite,as thats the way they would be fitted if purchased.... can anyone help me on this please?

What is the actual name of the wheel? Would be a better job if i had a pic of the wheel you want with a tyre on and with brakes behind.

That would be a problem as its an ebay advert and only listed as a smc alloy,as per the center cap,no actual model name,ive done some searching and cant find smc wheels at all,well not these,just some lists of motorbike and mini bike wheels,just lke the curved design and dish on these that might compliment the curves of the car,always liked the tvr spider wheel in anthracite so kinda trying to partially emulate that look

Personally I don't think they suit the car. The griffith looks best on the original OZ cross spoke design. Bit like these

With the polished lip these would look great.

To be honest im not a fan of the oz wheels,so discounted that style when i started to look for some new wheels think a five spoke design would be ok,although they come in various styles,this wheel will actually fit the car where as a lot wont even come close due to the odd front and rear fitments tvr chose to use for the originals.... was influenced by this car too below as well as the spider equiped cars,shame spiders never came in 4 stud applications

Those wheels look quite similar to the wheels seen on the T350 (and Tuscan) which I prefer to the ones you showed earlier, and they are TVR wheels (and available in antrhracite):

Those are actually compomotive MO wheels..... the wheels fitted to the tuscan and t350 would be 5 stud and not compatable with my 4 stud hubs....
