2008 wheels

Bought black 2008. Among other mods, I'm powdercoating the wheels white. I'm trying to decide flat white or semi-gloss white or gloss white. Any opinions?

Why not grey or gunmetal? White will look poor imo, plus, it will show dirt on all he flat surface.

I drive a 01 in BB. I would also do gunmetal in gloss... white wheels are a PITA!! worse than chrome even...

If you are doing white, I'd go semi-gloss or gloss. Matte always just makes me think of dirt or a rattle can job.

Good luck cleaning. At least you've only got 5 spokes, so it shouldn't be too bad.
