c rim paint

hey guys first off im new to the forum and want to thank everybody for thier post's ive learned alot just by reading them , i'm also new to the allis bought a 1948 c about a month ago and it didnt take me long to fall in love. my question is what was the orig, color of the rims ive seen pics all org, and some silver, what about the cream????

the most common scheme I have seen is the front rims all orange and the back wheels orange with silver rims. I like the more symmetrical approach, so I painted all four rims silver. I think it looks good that way, but as stated, you go with whatever you will like the most!

I have been using a Pewter gray on the rear rims instead of the silver/aluminum paint.

on the rear rims i have been using Rustoleum #248927(steel) it is there wheel paint it looks more original then silver paint.you can get this paint at walmart for 5 to 6 $ a can.it is in the auto section.

I took in abunch of parts that included 4 rear and 4 front rims for my 1948 G.  Had them galvanized at a plant in Modesto CA  it was right around 200 dollars.  So you may want to consider that.
