    Comparing the spare wheel, with the original tire mounted on it, and several silver paints I found the best match was Austin Healey wire wheel silver available from Moss Motors. It is a little greyer then most restored wheels but it does have a hint of blue in it. Test it first and see if you like the color.

    Cheers Jim

    Yes a lot of the restored cars go to this bright contemporary Ferrari silver and that's just incorrect.

    If it helps you can buy a can from California... sorry I don't have a paint number. I painted the wheels on my Austin Healey about 14 years ago and the paint has held up very well, they look just like they did when I finished. However that car has been off the road for a number of years now. I have also used Moss's engine paint, overall I would say the paint they are selling is a good quality paint.

    Thanks for sharing this.

    You have love Lamborghini's period color-assignation man. Im convinced he was color blind. The 2 Verde leather choices are... well, they're not Verde at all!
