What are your opinions on aftermarket wheel finishes?
Thoughts???
-Gloss when clean shines and looks clean
-Matte may hide break dust longer / good contrast to gloss finish of the vehicle / do matte wheels look funny with tires that have been dressed
In my mind I'm leaning towards gloss looking the best but need some pros and cons to the other finish options...
Not a fan of matte finish unless you go with that throughout the whole Jeep as the "theme"...I am ditching the black-chrome spiders for a dark grey/gunmetal metallic finish Goliath's...in my head it looks good...will know in two weeks haha! Also changing brake pads tomorrow, I am tired of these Eco-friendly OEM brembo pads. That should really help with the brake dust, especially in the fronts
I went with a satin finish. Basically right down the middle between gloss and matte. Like everyone said gloss wheels pop and matte wheels hide the finish. Pictures don't do the satin finish justice it's truly amazing in person. And when it's dirty it just looks matte unlike gloss where you can tell it's very dirty
Thanks Cary, as you know the wheel only comes in matte unfortunately, so I'll be headed to the powdercoater or painter before mounting the tires. Maybe I'll be happy with the finish but I doubt it.

I have the matte black wheels with my Redline Jeep and the matte does look funny when the tires have been dressed. As mentioned before, I imagine the gloss would pop a lot more than the matte.
