not a clue. definitely not painted.    though the scratch reveals a white plastic like finish.  alloys are very dirty btw, not scratched all over as it looks.  some of it is glare- they're very shiny.  the alloys appear to be diamond cut so it is totally different to the 17 inch standards or the mark 5 versions.

Well, no urgent reason to change what are a set of very new tyres right now. Must wear them down with more "spirited driving" :)


Tho remins me that I haven't checked the tyre pressures, could still be on some ridiculous delivery level!
