There are a set of SBP 14" Ralllye Wheels on my "new" 1970 Duster 340 car. They have previously been repainted and the color is wrong. I want to repaint them before I put new tires etc on the car. What is the best paint to use to get a nice, factory appearing finish/color?
 
What have your search results provided after punching in “Mopar argent silver”?
 
Spray bomb?
Sprayable?

Dupont Non Smudge Aluminum was always a very close match... Don't know if it's still available...

799-17301 was the code
 
Eastwood had a kit or used to 2 cans of Light Argent and the Satin Black for the inside of the rims. I believe the color is Light argent silver for rims and 1970 Center caps and satin black for back side of rims. 71 and 72 had dark center caps on small bolt ralleys etc.
 

I have had very good experiences with Herb's Parts for paint. I have only used the spray paint though.

Correct? No, but rolling down the road who's going to know the difference?
 
I tried VHT argent silver, and it looked like fake chrome spray paint. I ended up sanding my wheels and re spraying them with Rust-Oleum 7271 Silver metallic.
