Default Proper color for turbo wheels?

I have a wide body targa like the picture attached. My wheels are chrome and I am going to get them powder coated black (like the pic attached). Does anyone know the "proper" finish to use? Is this a gloss or matte finish? Is there a particular paint code? Thanks in advance.

Wurth satin black is close to the original finish. Not matte and not shiny. The heat required to apply powder coat paint to your wheels may compromise the wheels' durability. The factory used regular paint for the centers and hard anodizing for the rims.
