Are they painted from the factory?

Yes.
Basesd on observations of my own flakes.
That's all I know.

You'd think there was enough "Flakes" round where to get an answer from.

Wurth sells spray cans of silver and gold wheel paint...it's a perfect match and I suspect it's a Glasurit product. It's expensive ($15-20/can), but one can will do two wheels easily...actually two cans...you're supposed to follow the color coat with their clear coat. Most European auto shops can get Wurth products.

Close, but not quite "correct" is Krylon's "dull aluminum" metallic paint...much cheaper and usually easier to find.
