i don't know about color but i repainted some gargen tractor wheels. with some good tractor white spray paint. it was kind of high but it worked real good it was nice and thick. i might have even repainted one or two stock truck wheels with it. sanding the details was probably why they turned out so good.

re: wheel paint
I've never had real good luck with paint on wheels, but I do hit the gravel now and then.
I gave up on paint and bought a powdercoater from Eastwood. I use what they call "bumper powder". Very tuff stuff, you can dent it with a hammer, but it doesn't chip. The local shops around here charge $10-$25 per wheel. Once powdercoated, you're pretty much set for life.

Made my first million.....too bad it was mistakes..not dollars! Now pass me that crescent hammer.
