They are powder-coated. With a poliched rim as far as i'm aware. I think it's a kind of anthracite grey.

Looks the game if you ask me.

Kenny, where did you get them done and have they got a website?

Moynas, what kind of finishes are available for the centres do you know, colours etc?

Looks superb Kenny. You'll need to get a few daytime pics sorted.

Wouldn't mind seeing those wheels in the flesh to see the finish on them.
