H2 wheels Gloss or Flat Black

Before Christmas I got a good deal on some H2 wheels. Last week I finally got all 5 centers cut to size and dropped them off with a friend that’s getting me a great deal on some black powder coating. My question for yall is do I get gloss or flat black? I have a light bar, steps, and a tool box that are all powder coated gloss black so I was thinking do the wheels in the same gloss black. I have never had anything but chrome or alum rims so I don’t know if there are any pros or cons with gloss or flat black so let me know.
Thanks

P.S. pics of my truck and wheels are in my photo gallery

I'd go with Flat. I think it would match any other black accessories that you may put on your truck in the future. That's my $.02!

This is all going to boil down to people's personal opinions. There is no added benefit to either or, just has to go off of your own personal taste. I am getting ready to powder coat my wheels as well...the stockers, but I am doing just the outside of the wheels and keeping the lug cap chrome. I am doing mine in flat black, but just because I like flat better than gloss. As long as the person powder coating it for you does a good job, you'll be good to go either way

The thing I don't like about flat black is it always looks dirty!!!
