Custom 5 Spoke Rims

Decided I needed to put the Car WIPs on hold and get some simpler stuff under my built first. So, I'm working up this new set of Rims and Tires. Currently the brakes are by Hardknox, but will be replaced with my own soon. Need to do some more mapping work on the tires to get the Treads to wrap aroind to the top of the sidewall better.

Comments, suggestions, feedback all welcome.

Re: Custom 5 Spoke Rims

Thanks jumpman. This if my first render with V-Ray so it's not perfect by any means.. I definately need to find/come up with a better way to do chrome. As far as the other materials, they are from a download from this site. as car-paint. Any suggestions on acheiving a good chrome?

The scene uses two vray lights.

Re: Custom 5 Spoke Rims

nice rims
but the rotors need smoothing, cause the reflections are weird

Re: Custom 5 Spoke Rims

Thanks for the comments. I didn't bother "smoothing" the hubs on the rotors since they wont show once put into the rims anyway, so figured there wasn't much point in putting additional detail in that will not be seen.

Here's the final version. Wires on the callipers are pretty bad, but the overal result is decent for my purposes. Appreviate the comments.
