Default Black truck and flat/matte black wheels

Just got a 2011 S/C FX4. It's metallic black and I am debating on gloss black wheels or matte black wheels. what do you guys think on the wheel color?

Wheels will be on Nitto grapplers 295/55 - 20's

I'm partial to the matt black....but I hear it is harder to keep clean than the gloss black.

you should go with a satin black....matte black wheels just look like they're covered in brake dust...$0.02

I love the way the matte black wheels look on my black truck. They don't look like they are covered in brake dust if you actually keep them clean. On my wheels the coating is easy to keep clean and has a sharp look. You can actually see a little bit of shine in the picture below. In my opinion the gloss black is just a little too much.

I'd go with matte black, I think they look better. Here's mine, even though my truck isn't completely black.
