Not the best shot but my stockies were painted by the dealership I purchased it from. It's a glossy black.

I plasti dipped them and then put a couple coats of gloss black and gloss clear coat. Kept good for 18 months till I got new tires and the tire shop messed them up.


My new ones are matte!!

Mine are gloss black DupliColor, but I won't show pics because everyone will laugh at my lift kit.

If I could do it all over, I'd go flat or matte. Brake dust really shows up on the gloss, regardless of what color the wheels are.

Thank you! I love them. Haha.
On a side note; gonna try to Plasti dip the center cap and then see how dificult it will be to take the chrome L out of the oem center caps and add them to the new center caps. The oem center caps are to small for the new rims. We shall see.
