    This is quite interesting they have the wheels painted in black, and painted in graphite.

    The standard wheel which has a diamond cut/polished finish is a very difficult finish to reproduce, and if someone does kurb their wheels they will find that not many wheel companies will be able to match this finish. If however you took one of these 'painted' finshed rims, repair would be much easier. A good point if your current car has chucks out of its wheels (although im sure everyone here knows how to drive and park without doing this.)
