Got a set of 157s with near new all season tires I plan to use as my “winter set” here in the Midwest. I am planning on repairing the nasty curb rash from the previous owner, and in the process will be needing to repaint all 4 wheels. While I am at it, not the worst time to have some fun with a different color. Anyone experiment with paint colors on these very “stock” looking wheels? Leaning towards a tinted gunmetal. Car is Tasman Green. These will be on the car for 4 months at most, and I plan to get rid of the wheels after I get a few seasons out of the tires.

Over here in Europe, most folks like to paint their winter rims/sets in Black. I just use steel rims with hubcaps on the F45 and just an old set of aluminum rims I don't care about on the wagon.
