Im just gonna get straight to the point, I know that the camera did not make this photo the way it is and i was wondering your opinion on what they did to manipulate it.

Now in this picure i guess they used a motionblur, but how did they make it look like the wheels are spinning? This was a still shot.

for the first i believe they might have added a transparent-to-black radial gradient colouring on soft light and smudged it a lil... looks pretty nice. maybe theres also some fiddling around with layer modes and a lil motion blur, but i cant really tell :/

/brainstorm

for the second, no idea

Doesn't like they did much to the first one.. some luminance blending, vignette or LOMO then the border.

For the second one, are you sure its a still and not a paced shot? Where the photo is taken from another car pacing the one in the shot?

The car was shot with a camera on a tripod.

and i believe that this tutorial explains a lot.

radial blur for the rims.

I guess it just takes some practice

Here are a few shots of cars, IMO i think any angle would be good.

Second attempt.
Another Edit:

The black rims seem to come out the best, the silver rims are harder to form, or it just might be the size of the pictures
