Just purchased me a 2011 370z Touring Sport Package with 18k Miles! Super excited! I want to paint the wheels black. Should I paint them satin black or gloss black?

Satin or Gloss Black wheels?
Just purchased me a 2011 370z Touring Sport Package with 18k Miles!
Super excited! I want to paint the wheels black. Should I paint them satin black or gloss black? I think they came factory black too right? Does anyone know if they are a gloss or satin? This looks like a satin: While this looks more gloss: Thanks |

Got my nismos along with the lugs powder coated 'Stone Black' and absolutely love them.

Hope this helps as well. I went with Matt Black instead of Gloss Black. The main reason is because matt will hide dust better than gloss will. I'm very anal about keep the car clean. I had a set of Gloss Black wheel on one of my C6, I said "never again". What ever you go with, make sure to post pictures of the wheel.

Congratulations on the car - it looks lovely. You've made the right decision to go for satin.

I ended up sending that car back ( had it delivered) they gave me a 7 day money back guarantee. The front end had been resprayed poorly- orange peel and junk in the paint everywhere...
I ended up buying a 370z Nismo with the gun metallic wheel color - so dont need to paint anything anymore..! Thanks everyone! Last edited by SINISTER; 02-14-2017 at 09:14 AM. |

Yea, the original owner purchased it with zero miles mid 2014 although it was a 2013 so the thing is like new and certified so it has warranty for 4 + years left and so clean underneath...without any rust at all! Found that out doing an oil change this weekend ...my god 16 bolts, 9 clips and 5 screws ...thats 30 bolts etc.... Also got new tires michelin super sports...ride is less harsh.
