They will be almost Matte Black - bolts will stay original color. Need to order Grabbers from SDHQ. I had to buy a new torque wrench for the bead bolts that would handle 20-24 ft/lbs. I will post pics when the wheels are back from powder and then when mounted.

Did they come with grade 8 bolts? Also, it may have been overkill but I torqued mine down in 5 lbs increments up to 20 lbs and have never had one come loose. Going slow and patience is key. Good luck with them.

Yes - they have 6 radial lines = Grade 8. What is your opinion of putting some Loctite 242 (medium) on them before installation?
