Going to have my rims painted Black ( powder coated) and have a choice of Glossy, Flat or Satin
Has anyone done this? and has recommendations on what looks the best to match the Honda OEM Paint
I am just looking for examples/photos Thanks

Satin. Gloss will get jacked up too easily and I don't think a flat would look good with your shiny paint. Definitely Satin.

It's all a matter of personal taste. I actually like the shiny black better than satin & I can't stand the look of flat paint on rims. DSN46 obviously likes Satin better. The next reply may prefer flat. Go with what you like the best and don't worry about anyone else thinks. It's kinda like the old saying where if everyone's idea of the perfect woman was the same, they'd all want to be married to my wife...

The local powder coat shop I used had percentages in increments of 10 from 10% to 100% gloss. I went with 50%. Also the shop had 4" square card samples to help with the decision.

Definitely satin. I wonder how long unitl this black wheel fad dies off.
