Good day Folks,

  I've searched a few different ways in here to find a paint code for the wheels on my 91. What are most people using?

Thanks.

Although there have been some very nice rebuilds, this sight isn't much of a "correct restoration" site - most people have gone with rim swaps, powder coating, a few strip and polish - - but no "restoration correct color/tone/sheen/finish/etc" painting of the wheels that I know of (but I'm sure a dozen will speak up now that I've said that ....

I used a gray mag wheel paint from a local parts store to paint the centers of a set I polished the rims off before I sold them some years ago.

VHT Ford Argent Silver is a close match for the frame and rims.

Thanks guys, I see the wheel paint is as close as you can find. NP, I can work with that. I did find the Ford Silver here in Canada in a wheel paint.

Thanks .
