Agreed, design not so bueno. Fitment looks great though.

I rolled the rears, but they have a slight rub going over large bumps, if I take them slow it's OK. No rub at all in front. BTW, I'm on Bridgestone S-04s. 255/35/19 in front and 295/30/19 in back.

For me - The Design is VERY BUENO! I LUV 'em!

Looks good! Great quality for a cheap price too.

You could also try semi-gloss.

If they are powdered already and the powder is fresh, they may be able to shoot clear over them.

That is why I shoot clear on virtually every set of wheels I do, both to extend the life of the finish virtually indefinitely, and to make the brake dust virtually fall off with little effort.

Tired of the curb marks from the previous owner, plus will be getting new tires for summer, so am looking to have my wheels coated. Anyone done their 10/11 MY wheels in bronze?

Looking at bronze chrome with casper clear for something different, since I am likely to order aftermarket wheels in the future in some sort of brushed tinted finish so wanna stay away from another anthracite.
