Matte with a very fine gloss, color chip that the local powder coater had in stock. They are mounted now but i have to do some sanding of the center section and cap becuase of the added meterial of the coating. I have one of four on right now, sun went down and i lost my light for the day. It definately looks angry with the black and 275s, i like it.

I know i know, i have been lazy lately. It has been raining a lot and i dont want to take a pic with it looking so bad. Most places charge around $100 a wheel but i got them done for marginally cheaper.

The tire stick out a little on the front (dont rub) but the back lines up perfectly. A 275 with a more contoured edge would probably line up better on the front.
