I think matte black. But do you have to be careful with what you clean them with? who knows... I'm sure others will chime in.

Gloss rims on any colour, matte looks too dull and dark imo............

I say go with Gloss Black with you grey. With matte black might come out looking a little dull

I could go either way, but I went with these from Ford. They're gloss.
I'm weird about wheels, I try to only put on OEM. These aren't my dream wheels, but I wanted Ford, and I wanted black, so they fit the bill.

I think either finish can look good. Choosing the right rim is more important.

What color is the car you're trying to decide on? What are your plans (if any) for darkening the rest of the shiney bits on the car (headlights, tailights, etc)?

I went with bronze but i also like the silver/machined look and black is good too
matte is hard to take care of from what ive heard.

On sterling gray I would not use black wheels. silver/machined look with black would work great though. Like above.
