Default Rallye Wheel paint color ??

Sorry if this has been asked before, but what is the correct color, or something very close for the silver/gray rallye wheels ?? Something in a spray can would be nice until they are done right.

Thanks :yesnod:

If you look at http://www.ecklers.com/product.asp?p...&dept%5Fid=122 they have Chevy Rally paint for your wheels. I bought mine from there and it worked out great.

BIGsteve, Yes Eckler's is good . What I did is, went into the basic ACE hardware store. Got some Krylon semi-gloss silver for 3 bucks. It works real well. Make sure you prep wheels good. Good luck, L8TER, Paul.

chevyman, Great sig. pic.!!

Most of the catalog stores (Zip, Eclklers, Mid-America, etc.) sell it. I couldn't find the name, but I'm thinking Argent Silver :confused:

Ahhhhh......Argent silver, a very popular wheel color. It's all coming back to me now. That was the recommended color for the British wire wheels and rims too. I used it on my old Triumph TR6 and it looked great. Thanks for the replies.

ECkler's actually has a can of "Corvette Rally Wheel paint". It's 5.95, I saw it in the catalog yesterday.
