I had the same dilemma and ended up going with satin black and LOVE IT! Now I just gotta paint my ugly stock calipers black.

I like that I got 20 with a lip but i just saw some matte black powder coated and some painted matte black there is a difference but i like the semi gloss too
I didnt want it to shiny I really wanted matte face with gloss lip

everything
powdercoated matte black... no issues with mine. But I wash my car once a week so they never get dirty

If I were to get lipped wheels though, Id do the hoops gloss and the face matte.
