Finish Overview
RAYS offers the CE28N-Plus in multiple colorways, but two of the most popular options for aggressive builds are Black (BK) and Matte Black (MB). While both appear dark at first glance, they create distinctly different looks on the car.
| Attribute | Black (BK) | Matte Black (MB) |
|---|---|---|
| Sheen | Gloss / reflective | Flat / non-reflective |
| Appearance | Deep, wet-look black | Subdued, stealth black |
| Spoke Definition | Highlights curves and edges | Softens contours |
| Maintenance | Shows dust and fingerprints more | More forgiving day-to-day |
| Best Pairing | Gloss or metallic paint | Matte wraps, satin finishes, murdered-out builds |
Side-by-Side Comparison
Both wheels shown below are 18x9.5 +22 — identical specs, different finishes. Notice how the gloss Black (BK) reflects light and accentuates the spoke geometry, while the Matte Black (MB) absorbs light for a flatter, more understated look.
Which Should You Choose?
