1958 Buick Wheel Colour

[dei]

I should know this... but thought I would ask the guru's.

 

Putting a set of wheels together for my Limited and want to paint the wheels / rims. 

The ones from my parts car have some faded red paint on the exposed side but are black on the inside. What is the correct painting for these?

I like the red but want to do these once and correctly.

Thanks

(one that should know this by now... )

Red wheels were optional; otherwise they would be painted body color. I'm thinking the entire wheel should be all one color.

I would have thought that too Pete.

 

My Limited is black but the front of the wheel is red and know neither Dad or I painted them way back in the late 60's when he bought the car.

 

Thanks for looking.

According to Gene Reynolds(Mr58) all wheels were black and red was the only option -
