The rims are two different colors.One set is gray and the other is some other color I can describe.
I am thinking of painting them black to match the car,Does anyone have a pic of color matched wheels especially black.
Any Photoshop guys out there that can change color to black for me.

I kinda like the black look, on your black car. Had them that way on the Nova when I got it and couldn't change them fast enough.

FireFighter Scott I know it's to late but,
The only color that will work with body color is of course silver. I used cortez silver on my wheels and looks really good! It's the 69 RS coupe listed here. when I bought the car it was lemans blue and so were the wheels it looked worse than the black. but the original paint code was 69 cortez silver that's why I did the deal. take care, steve

Cars look awesome
I actually like the black. Granted, Argent does look better, but the black doesn't look bad. Now days, it seems a lot of high end cars are going with darker wheels.

I'll never forget, when I was a kid I saw a '68 z/28. It was Hugger Orange with yellow Rally Stripes and the wheels were yellow to match the stripes.
I liked it so much that when I bought my first car in '82, a '69 Firebird, that I painted it Orange with yellow wheels. I liked it, but everyone would always ask me why the wheels were yellow!
Here's my car now. I think it's sitting too high.

Well I had to try it and although i like it Black made the car look very dark!!!Kinda strange but its back to "normal" now.
And I found out that Mineral Spirits cleans the white letters really good (By accident)

Just as I stated when I bought my first diesel truck will never go back to gas.
After driving a BB will never have a SB again!!
No history other than the guy who built it told me.
