Are these OEM wheels a factory finish




Obviously these are OEM wheels. My question is, is this an oem finish? I have never seen these factory wheels before. The listing online says they are brand new OEM. Thanks

Nope. They've been powdercoated black chrome or they've been chromed. OE color is plain old dull silver with a decently glossy finish. I have a set in my garage that came on the car when I bought it new.

Most luxury brands have more than one finish for the same wheel and usually say anniversary wheel etc.. you've been here long enough...

Yep, looks like I'm wrong. Have to say I no longer pay much attention to 18" wheels since I moved up to 19s. Guess I'll just shut the hell up and limit myself to deleting posts.

Yes, OEM finish, but it is the heaviest of all the versions of this wheel. Not by much, but a little heavier than the other ones like the brushed finish one.
