    Yes there are many colors and finishes to go with when you powdercoat

    Gloss Black, Flat Black, Satin Black etc.

    I dunno. I just bought black rims, but I did it with the feeling that I'm jumping on to the back-end of a big fad. In 2012, look for Toyota and other big makers to jump on the bandwagon and start offering a factory "paint-and-decal-pseudo-badass" package that includes black rims, and we'll all know that the era of "black-is-cool." has come to an end.

    I did my wheels from my FJ80 in the Flat Camo Black, They next day I bought a set of Flat Black KMC XD779 Badlands. It's hard to go wrong with black.
