Im looking a getting a pair of the Wheel Vintiques series 63 Mopar steel wheels. Im looking to get some info on the finsih of the wheels. I have read that they are painted, powder coated, Satin black, Gloss black..... Im hoping someone here has one or seen these in person and comment to their finish from the factory. Also how was the finish, are the nice, or do they need to be repainted, etc? Thanks...

I have them on my Road Runner. The paint finish looked ok when I bought them but I noticed a little rusting after a while where the 4 slots are. It's like it's a thin coat of paint that wasn't directed into all the crevices. If I was you, I would get them painted properly before fitting them.

Mick, looks good. What size are they up front 15x7 or x6 and what size tires?
I called the manufacture and they told me its a satin black powder coat....
