I was wondering if there is a  paint code for the  aluminum color on the rear rims for the wd45's.  I prefer PPG paint and want the correct tint.  I've seen some real bright tinted rims that don't look right.  The tractor is painted the correct orange and I want the rims to look like they came originally from the factory.  Thanks you.

From the Factor they were Galvanized not painted so Any color that looks galvanized to you is good. Glavanized metal starts out bright and darkens every year, so the color will change.

If they have never been painted, look into getting them regalvanized.  At one time there was a place in Rockford, IL that would do the first 600# for $150, and the price went down from there.  That's probably 8-10 rims.  Almost cheaper than painting them.
Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives.
