There are like a million shots of every rim available so you can see them from just about every angle before you purchase them, or you could just go to a shop and see them in person. There are pictures of a bunch of lowered HHRs so you see what an HHR looks like lowered without photoshop. You are probably going to make these guys waste all of their time Photoshopping things for you and not even end up getting an HHR. Use your imagination. Sorry to seem like a d**k but this is getting ridiculous. Alien while you're at at can you Photoshop my an HHR painted like the American flag, with a 5' lift kit on it, 13" civic rims, and all of the chrome trim changed to gold, green window tint, Hella light bar, and a Cadillac grille because I want to see how an HHR would look like that before I actually purchase one.
I couldnt disagree more. If this was the case, discount and other sites wouldnt have the tools to view a wheel on your specific car. A wheel is a hefty investment, and you should use EVERY tool you can to help you decide. Back in the old days we would cut wheels out of adds and put them on a picture to test the look. My "pic my wheel thread" was a perfect example of how it can help you, some wheels you think look good, dont look good with the specific application.

Im not saying these requests are justified, but if you have the basic abilities to photoshop them yourself, you should. It helped me A LOT picking my wheels, and I am pretty seasoned at modding cars. When you are dropping a few grand to do something, it makes sense to preview it. No different than bringing home paint samples for your house and picking paint out that way, instead of in the store.

Just my 4 cents (we get an extra 2 cents worth in Texas, since everything is bigger )

From watching this thread from the start/unravel, I think the point is being missed.

If you are serious about modding your HHR (which quite a few owner are doing) then by all means help each other out, ask/answer questions, compare notes & prices, photoshop wheels/accessories for fellow HHR owners... BUT don't BS good folks like Alien & Kodak along into photoshop-ing crazy requests... especially for a HHR that might/or not even happen.

IMHO, I believe that's what Capt was trying to explain to this kid (06ChevyHHR)

Not trying to squelch the enthusiasm, but at least "keep it real" with your intentions. (and requests)
