To answer your original question, the LG's are satin. But the FR41's are also good choice. Good luck.

Any specific one better? LG's are on sale for only 995 plus shipping right now which make them 100$ cheaper then the 20x10 and 20x11 factory reproductions

Def go with FR man. the quality is awesome and they back their product. They even sent me free touch up paint bc my alignment guy scuffed the edge of one of the rims. I'm on the opposite side of the country from them and shipped to my door it was $1070 total

Factory Reproductions 20x9's all the way around. Fast shipping, great service! Do you really need 20x11's on the rear of your LT? I went with the 9" wheels to run a 1LE, 285 square set-up.

Not really. The 1LE is stretched on larger wheels to kill under steer instead of just having a tall tire

Correct. 20x10's front and 20x11's rear with 285's.

I don't mean to sound rude so please understand I am only trying to help.

It sounds like you are trying to get "everything" with your tire and wheel choice and you really can't do that. I mean you are interested in looks, fit, performance and budget and the more you try do all of them, the less well your setup will do in all of them. It sounds like you may need to slow down, take a deep breath and really decide what you want out of your car and choose your setup accordingly.

Since you have a V6, and you don't track or autocross your car, do you REALLY NEED 11" wheels with 315s? With 275s or 285s, your cost is dramatically lower.

I couldn't say one is "better" than the other. All I can say is Iam happy with the LG one's. The FR41 guys seem happy with the ones they have. I have had mine mounted since December and so far haven't had any issue's so I have no clue how LG backs there product.
The only negative with the LG wheels is a factory GM center cap won't work on them. You would have to run the LG center cap or find an aftermarket one. Good luck on your decision.

I would undo the tire order if you can. G2 are not good tires. Horrible tread life. Absolutely aweful in any type of weather. And no traction until they're hot

Damn.. Really?
