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.

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.
