so I got a silver evo....
was originally going to grab the gun metallic ones but I saw them on a friend's sube and they were almost black...

then i was gonna grab the steel grey ones but all the pictures i saw they looked like they had like a machined face..

i've located one set of charcoal.

my question is if anyone has seen all 3 of these and can at all explain what the differences in color look like.

pictures would be great on an evo.

thanks in advance.

so, I went down to cosmic today and checked all their wheels out.

the people there are great! and it looks like they were cookin up some sweet food when I got there.

gunmetallic is very very very dark...almost black...and has a little bit of metallic in it. in some cases, the color looked a little bronze/brownish which turned me off. it has a glossy top coat.

steel grey is definately lighter and has a glossy top coat. there is very minimal metallic.

charcoal grey has a matte finish. I would say it is slightly lighter than the steel grey but it actually looks a little darker because the steel grey is glossy.
