I want to do it to my Cherokee, what color should I use?

If anyone else has done it, do you have pictures?

They used to call the original silver color on the steel wheels argent. Never painted any myself. I traded for some black soft 8 style wheels. I like the black look better on mine.

I'm going to paint the alloy wheels on my Grand. Already painted the spare I bought. Used Duplicolor wheel paint: http://www.duplicolor.com/products/wheel.html .....I'll take a pic in the morning.
