is the inside of a 15x7 ralley wheel get painted black or silver like the out side? and also, can someone post a picture of the correct hardware used to bolt the center cap on? its for a 1971 if that makes a difference.. thanks!

From what I have seen/done, paint the wheel black on the back side. Prep the front side, and paint it argent silver - letting the overspray go thru the wheel openings and onto the backside. . . . .

My two cents worth . . .

That's the way I've seen it too

From Resto-Rick's site:

I learned something new today.

thanks! I assume that the black is a gloss by looking at the picture?

one more quesion... what kind of silver did they use? was it a specific formula or was is just a medium silver with metalic flake? Im asking because I dont know if I should buy some ralley wheel paint of just go to my local paint store and get some. thanks!

If you are going so far as to paint the wheels properly, why not use the Mopar stuff? I painted mine improperly...I painted both sides with the Mopar rallye wheel paint. I didn't overspray on my battery cable either.

simple gloss back on the backside and the closest match I've found for the front is plain old krylon dull aluminum

.... but is Krylon "dull aluminum" still available? if so Where??

Does anyone sell the light silver argent in a "rattle can" for the 1970 rallye wheel center caps?

I couldn't find it but I was able to order it thru my local Tru-Value hardware store.

I have not bought any in a little while , but a buddy would order me a 6 pack of Krylon at Napa , he got a discount at the time. It had to be ordered,
Paint for the centers , when I was doing the plastic centers , I used lite and dark wheel coating paint from Advance Auto parts. It worked out well for me.

My

I just sprayed the Mopar rallye wheel paint and I am of the opinion it is too shiny. Anybody else think that way. They must have changed the formula because I used it 4 yrs ago on my Challenger's wheels and it looks alright.

thanks everyone for the info. luckly, my center caps were already restored when I bought the car. I was able to go to a not so local hardware store and after some serious digging, I was able to come up with 2 cans of dull aluminum!

one last question, does anyone have a picture of the correct bolts used to hold the center cap on? where are they available? thanks!
