Going to get my stock 18"s powdercoated black. Which black would look best for a black on black 2IS?

I am not sure if it is true, but I was told that flat black will fade after a year or so.

voted for matte, I think semi gloss would be good too. I wouldnt like the glossy black, itl take awa from the nice black paint fo the car. its kinda like the black ferraris with black wheels they have like a semi gloss, not too shiny
actually i changed my mind, get semi glossy. lol
