Wheel Finishes

Anthracite: Our Anthracite wheels feature a sophisticated finish achieved through a detailed multi-step process. The foundation is an anthracite powder coat, which is then enhanced with two layers of clear coat. This method ensures a high-quality finish with an impressive sheen that is superior to single-stage enamel options. The result is a luxurious, deep finish that may be difficult to capture fully in photographs.

Black Machined: Our Black Machined wheels undergo a thorough finishing process. A black powder coat serves as the base, followed by precision machining of the wheel’s face to reveal a polished aluminum look in the exposed areas. This is finished with two layers of clear coat, providing a glossy, durable finish.

Black Machined Tinted: These wheels are finished with a black powder coat base, precision-machined face, and two layers of tinted clear coat. This method adds depth and protection to the finish. See OE Wheels' Machined Rims here.
