Ya. Because it requires absolute accuracy. You have to hit the exact border between the black and the metallic parts. Five times per wheel.
Pretty much the same situation with painting over it, as OP complained.

Can't I just pick "replace silver with black" ?
No, Gimp has no simple way of doing this colourchange. Even accurately selecting just the metalbits is quite complex.

Can you tell me exactly what menu items I should click?
Maybe this method is too advanced for your experience level.
A layermask is a tool, a bit like a filter.
White reveals and black conceals.
You can add a layermask by rightclicking on a layer and select the Add Layermask command from the menu and then paint on it to mask areas in or out.
