Default slipstream: full polish steel gray?

Has anyone seen these in person? Do they look machined, like the fat fives, or is it more of a shiny finish? post pics if you got em. thanks

cool... would you say the wheels had a satin finish, or were they more chromed-out? I don't really want bling, but I think a bit of sheen looks good.

theres no such thing...... there is either fully polished, steel grey and steel grey w/ polished lip. polished is like chrome sorta. grey is just sliver/grey paint.

in regards to there being no such thing as "full polish steel gray," that's sort of why I created this post. It's a little confusing. I would think that "full polish" means that it's shiny and unpainted... but then Rota carries a "silver" color of the Slips, too. So are silver & steel gray both painted?

i have seen the ones rota calls "fully polished" there BS cause the inside of the spokes and holes for the lug nuts are black????

the only way is to polish them yourself.... so it doesnt matter which color you buy.
