Repainting rally wheels need paint
Anyone find a major brand (krylon, rustoleum, walmart) paint that matches the argent? silver color of the wheels? The wheels I am talking about are the factory 5 slot ones with the derby cap and trim rings. I am trying to avoid the $6 per can mail away stuff.

That $ 6.00 can should do all 4 wheels. That's only a buck and a half per wheel. Your not that cheap are you?

After Ecklers sticks you with the $10 shipping (Plus tax 'cause I am in state), it gets expensive for a can of spray paint.
Is the color correct?

I was going to suggest Eastwood, but they are getting $8.99 a can. Ya pays yer money and ya makes yer choice.
Of course... now that I have an Eastwood HotCoat system, I would just sandblast the snot out of them and then powder coat them. But of course you gotta take the tire off for powder coating... baking the tire at 400 degrees for 20 minutes seems kind of :crazy: ...

There are 2 colors of "silver" for rally wheels. 67-70? use "argent silver-green", ?70 and up use "argent silver". Pick the right color for your application. Chuck
