It's probably just forged aluminum. For what it's worth, all 4 sets of hubs I have look dirty as hell, but just a good cleaning make them bright and shiney. No need for a clear coat.

Got them stripped today. They're (heavily) anodized. They'll be polished out and then receive double dark tint clear powder to match the adv1's on my Lamborghini. Should look good in a black and chrome 20.

Finally got around to rebuilding a set of spare hubs I had lying around. Can you tell that Doomy(She owns the truck) has a specific color theme shes trying to stick with? Hahaha.
