Flip a coin...IMO they both look good with MW. Sorry I know that was completely unhelpful.

Completely personal opinion - get what YOU like. If you get something for the sake of pleasing others, you're just going to end up regretting it.

For me, personally, I like the semi-gloss between the two.

Semi gloss - after a few days driving they look near matte anyway.

macakacheck · 04-25-2012, 03:22 AM

yeah, you should follow your own taste! otherwise you will end up regret!

Space Ghost · 04-25-2012, 08:36 AM

Semi gloss will be eaiser to clean.

Full gloss or semi.

When gloss or semi gets brake dust on them, they look exactly like matte anyway - best of both worlds.

Gloss or matte is my favorite on white

but like everyone says, they turn matte in about two days anyway haha. And I meant full gloss

Johnny250 · 04-26-2012, 04:51 PM

i'd say gloss.. i'm tired of seeing the matte colors

Cameronc08 · 07-22-2012, 10:53 AM

Can someone put some comparo pics of a MW e92 with both gloss and matte zcp rims? Im debating the same thing currently and can't find high quality pics.

Krozi · 07-22-2012, 09:32 PM

Semi gloss for sure.

Malek@MRF · 07-22-2012, 10:07 PM

Semi gloss. That's what we do for mineral white cars. Matte doesn't go well with MW.

geneatals · 07-22-2012, 10:44 PM

matte just looks dirty IMO...

Alex07M3 · 07-22-2012, 10:54 PM

semi gloss, because I prefer my gts wheels without brake dust!

badazzm · 07-23-2012, 01:32 AM

Gloss is hard to keep clean man. Once you see the clean gloss look, you don wanna get them dirty. Depends on u if u wanna clean once a day for clean look all the time. I do.
