I've been planning on putting new wheels on my '68 since the current wheels are a pain to deal with. They look great, but are unilugs that I hate to deal with. I've been looking for either Rally wheels or the SS 5 spoke wheels that the '71-71 SS Chevelles came with.

Well, I scored a set of those for free. So, the question is what color to paint them.

1) Body color (car is red)
2) The argent gray color they originally were
3) Gloss black

Any ideas?

I have the rally's on my '69 and they're painted the body color (red also). I REALLY don't like them this way. My dad does. If I were you, I'd get the silver color that came stock. Just my .02 If you want I can take some pics of my wheels and send tham to you so you can have an idea what they'd look like in the red. Email me if you're interested: chrisking79@mac.com
