Default The new HD wheels

Anyone seen any of the black ice wheels from HD? I'm curious if they are like a black chrome or if they're like a powder coat. Here's a couple of links to what I'm talking about.

They aren't powdercoated nor Black Chrome. They are dipped using a specil technology but they closer to black chrome. Hard to describe but I knew when I saw them....they were perfect for Thor's Hammer!!! LOL
