im shoppin for rims soon and was wondering what the different between gloss black and hyperblack. is hyperblack shinny black chrome? lol

 

I think it really depends on the manufacturer.

 

Hyper black is gloss black with a semi translucent film of silver over the black so it endfs up looking like a nice slightly darker than silver kind of paint where the black still shows thru the deep valley's of the wheels. Here's an example:






But it still doesn't look like chrome which is 100% REFLECTIVE, MORE LIKE A MIRROR THAN A PAINT (SORRY, CAPSLOCK).

 

so those are hyper black?

 

Yes, like what Ron said, hyperblack is more of a black/silver-ish kind of look. Like a really nice looking gunmetal or light dark chrome (if you are like me and have the RP03's in mind).

Gloss black is just that. Shiny shiny black.

 

im goin for the silver and black theme i guess. still deciding on which 1 to go for. gloss black or hyper black?

 

Silver and black...personally I like gloss black

 

[yea i got some gloss black rims
