I'm sure it'll look sweet but you should post up a good profile shot of your ride and rims so we can get a better idea on what you have in mind.

I would need to see a better pic of you car and rims to decide. If your car is flat already I think glossy rims may look better

I would say Gloss or Shine on the rims, especially if the paint is flat white .Sounds very cool though I wanna check this out. keep us posted.

I would go with gloss rims with the flat body.

I cant see it being that of a cost to switch rim from flat to gloss. Maybe do one rim to get an idea. You can be the first & the trendsetter. I dont think I ever saw Flat on Flat.

I guess its not really powder coat. But a buddy of mine has a powder coat/ Bed liner mix spray that is legit... I just call it powder coat... Ill have to snag some pictures and a sample piece. Its awesome... It will even protect when you catch a curb

i would look more into your buddies "bed liner mix spray" powder coat goes on thin and melts evenly, it kinda concerns me about the density and weight of this "bed liner mix" there is A LOT of rotating mass with 22'' wheels and if your heavy and light in spots with coats there will be hell to pay! they will never balance out true, and you always have ride quality issues that will translate into all kinds of tire wear issues and longevity of suspension and steering components. (I do wheels and tires for a living) I would say if its worth doing its worth doing right and i would have them professionally coated! just use our vendor "Unknown Coatings" im sure they'll hook you up! mikey had his coated and they look GREAT! And i like the idea of Flat on Flat i say go for it!
