For paint I would suggest you try Eastwood.com's Argent Silver. Its very
close to the original color. I just found a powder-coating place near me
that will sandblast and color/clear powdercoat my wheels for around $50 each
and I think that's the route I'm going..

Subject: TR6 Original Rim Color
Can anyone tell me what paint or color codes I should use to paint my rims?
I did a search and saw to use silver. I know someone who painted his
mini-lites aluminum and then with clear and they look great. I was just
thinking the color would be gray.
I did a search on the archives and found nothing, but did find something on
VTR.
If you can give info like manufacture of the paint, color, color code, pics,
or any prep work would be a plus too.
I'm about to order some tires soon, I have to get frame down on all fours so
I can put in the engine.
I'm looking to get some spray cans at the local store.
If you are wondering I'm going with 205-70/R15 Yokohama Avid Touring tires
$270w/S&H from tirerack.com I am going to call Town Fair because they will
beat any price.
