I my X5 is black so i am thinking that the wheels may look better in a glossy black finish but i am still up in the air on that one. Appreciate the pics let me know if you decide to go glossy.
Plasti-dipping it black changes the look drastically and I couldn't be more happier. In Vancouver it rains quite a bit so brake dust/oils stick pretty good to the dip, makes the rim look really dull, one of my buddies with a RS5 dipped his rims too but he did 4 Coats (roughly 1 Can = 4 Coats) of gloss and when it gets dirty, it doesn't look too bad and its actually easier to clean. When my rims get dull/dusty, I use Megiuars Hot Rim Cleaner (Purple), just wet your rim, spray it on, let it eat in and rinse and it should look like when you first dipped it. As for glossy, I'm gonna do it, no doubt about that just really lazy now, you should go right to glossy tho
