okay what you do is this.
1. find picture of a rim that is at the same angle as the picture your putting them on.
2. using the Polygonal Lasso tool http://www.silverpaladin.com/~david/step1.jpg (it's in the top left part of the tool bar, it's 2nd one on the left from the top) cut around the rim, press CRTL+C to copy the rim http://www.silverpaladin.com/~david/step2.jpg , and then go to ur picture and press CRTL+V to paste it on there. http://www.silverpaladin.com/~david/step3.jpg
3. Place the rim right overtop your picture'. press CRTL+T to free transform it. Zoom in a bit to get a better look at it , then right click on the rim that u cut out and select "DISTORT".http://www.silverpaladin.com/~david/step5.jpg
4. Pull the rim to the shape you want it. match it to the rims size on the picture. http://www.silverpaladin.com/~david/step6.jpg
5. once your done re-sizing the rim, hit ENTEr to get out of free transform and take a look at your picture.

The easiest way i can tell you to change rims is this.
Find the photo you want to TAKE the rims from, select the rims. Use the polygon lasso tool, (if you need help, use help and search select).
Once you have selected the rims, go edit,copy.
Now go too the photo you want to put them on, and go edit, paste.
They will probably be the wrong size or look wrong. So go edit, transform. Use all the different kinds of transforming to get them to look right.

Hey mentel, intgra22 was just giving him another way of doing something, why take offence?
Hell you were telling him to use distort, not anything else.
