I am repainting the Pedrini wheels on my car. Has anyone found a spray paint that comes close to the factory silver color? Tired a couple of Duplicolor silvers but either too shiny or really bright silver color.
Thanks for the recommendations

Thought Pedrinis were anodized

Here is my favorite thread on the topic. Although they aren't Pedrinis, I think the color is great and he did an awesome job.

Wurth silver wheel paint

I have used a paint color called Argent silver. Bought it at a paint shop, but Eastwood sells it in spray cans. Maybe others do to.

If you like the dark look...
Duplicolor grey undercoat plus clear topcoat.

I second Wurth. I've used it on Porsche and Alfa Romeo wheels and it looks quite a bit like a factory finish.

argent silver was used on aussie fords standard steel wheels for years by the factory here. i got a feeling also vw australia may have used it when they were here in late 60s/70s. its pretty close if not the real thing for 914s. i've had my spare side by side with a wheel from a late 80s falcon ute and i can't tell much of a difference either, not that the 74 914 steel is an aussie vw. but thats for standard steel wheels.
