I would recommend GLOSS BLACK. To me... non-glossy wheels just look dirty.
If you look at pictures of the new Lamborghinis, the trend seems to be high-gloss black. Really lets off the paint, dynamic contrast, yet still looks classy!

definitely gloss black, I'm not a fan of black wheels, but at least the gloss will stand out more.

I always liked the flat black teflon coated look.
