Satin, Flat or gloss
I'll be blacking the rims soon , I just wanted to get some opinions on the sheen of the black. What do you all think , Gloss , satin or flat. Flats pretty much off the list in my eyes, Gloss seems to be the easy pick. ?

They will be chemically stripped of the original clear and sprayed then coated.
and then i will redo the yellow stripes.

Holy rim color choices Batman !!!

Gloss would be easiest to keep clean.. But for looks I vote for satin.. Off-set it from the body paint hi-gloss. & I'd have em powder coated..

How much did you have to pay for that? I am also looking into getting black wheels and i have no clue if i want new wheels, or just want to refinish the stock wheels.
