I am curious about this as well, the centers (inside the black, looks like satin finish?) apparently that is the silver powder coat, therefore makes it two tone??

The wheel center is powder coated gloss black. Brushed on the sides, and the whole center is clear powder coated.

What you see is the brushed aluminum, not silver powdercoat. After the pockets and sides were machined, the whole center was powdercoated clear to protect the brushed aluminum and to seal all the black edges.

interesting, I think that would be cool.
