Gloss black can look 'cheap' on the wrong wheels imo. I'd go for satin.

It really depends on the style of the wheels and number of spokes.... lesser spokes look better in a matt/satin black in my opinion

recently refurbed in satin, proving to be a bit of a pain in the **** to keep stain free

ideal for what i wanted as they never really look dirty, but even wiping your finger on them leaves a smudge when they're clean.

not the end of the world but my gloss antracite just need a quick wipe to look sparkling. i do like the moody look of the satin though, depends what you're after really
