I think the glittering black is more the color I'm looking for. Is there any way you can give me the phone number to the shop you bought them from?

these are like a silvery-black powder coat finish and not like a black chrome highly polished finish right?

I can't tell you exactly what the process is, but it seems to be a silver powder coat over a black base (parts of the wheel that aren't showing are black, as are a couple nicks around the lugs thanks to the tire shop that mounted them). It is a more reflective, shiny finish than most powder coated wheels, but is not chrome or polished bare metal.

I am very impressed. I was considering those wheels. They are super clean.

How heavy are they?

EDIT:: 23lbs. Sorry just read through the thread.

That's pretty heavy for an 8.5" wheel... oh well they're still really clean.

The shop that mounted your wheels nicked them?

Yeah, a few nicks around the lugs. Didn't even notice until a few days later.

That sucks. I wrapped my key with duck tape to help prevent that. I hope it serves as a reminder to whom ever is working on my wheels as well

With in a week or so having my wheels mounted one of them got a rock chip so I know how you feel.

Wow I like them. I seen some in 19's but that was way to big. 18's are just right IMO!
