As the title states I'm looking to get my oem Speedline wheels powder coated soon and I'm thinking about going with Satin/semi-gloss Black.

I currently have a set of gloss black C6Z wheels on it now and while I like the black wheel look I think the gloss finish is just a bit too "glossy" for the car and stands out more than I like.

I'm curious to see what routes others have gone who have had their wheels re-done in a color other than the factory argent gray or black. If so please post 'em up as I'm wanting to see if something really catches my eye or sparks an idea.

I have a powder coat side business I do along with the textile plant... Ive always liked the sandblasted look with a matt clear over it! No one has that and its sweet!

It's a little loud but gold and red look good together, I think better in a mesh though. Maybe a gunmetal with a redstripe it'll look clean.

I painted mine, smoke gray metallic, and went with a single stage vs base/clear. It give more of a semi-gloss look since the metallic is right at the surface and not covered by clear.

This. More subtle and would look great on a red Z.

I actually already ran that color on my wheels for a couple years.

Did the same thing with a base coat/clear coat, unfortunately the paint didn't hold up as well as I was hoping thus why I'm planning to have them stripped and redone. It does look pretty good though so it could be a possibility...

The factory wheels are painted, not sure what they used but it was very durable for paint. I think more so than the paint I used but we'll see down the road.

PC will be more durable for sure and a lot less work, you just have to decide on a color.

My 2013 Camaro 1LE with the ZL1 wheels were also paint, it looked like a single stage semi gloss to me, and the paint was very thin. Not nearly as durable as the 2002 wheels.

A color that I would consider would be bronze. I have seen some red cars with dark bronze wheels that looks amazing.
