- I have gloss black wheels on Alpine White, they look great. If I had to do it all over again I would go with 3-4% matte finish to better hide the brake dust.
- I really like the black wheels with a thin silver rim. It will be hard to get a clean edge if you try to paint and leave the rim silver. Big chance for disappointment.

Thanks

Cheers for the advice on semi matt - I've thought about this but I'm in two minds as I'm not sure how it would like with a gloss silver rim and gloss car.....although when done all over the wheels I think it looks awesome.

Wheels are now booked in to be painted on Thursday, cant wait to see how it looks

I personally dont like the black spokes, they look perfect the way they are.
