    Matching wheel paint for stock Honda steelers

    Anyone find a perfect match for them?

    I'm referring to all the Honda steel wheels like on the 200's, 125's, 110's and so on.

    Its not an exact match, but i used dupli-color "chrome-aluminum" enamel. It has a little more gloss/brighness to it but it doesn't look like the fake chrome paint. Looks good to me.

    Amazing how many silver and greys there are !

    I ended up using dupli-color Aluminum 1684 . Not sure if that is identical to what you used being mine doesn't have the chrome in it but this is how it looks ........

    Thanks!

    Yea, you would think I was jumping something huge or hit a big boulder but the truth is I bought the 125 with it like that, so who knows what the true story is.

    We will just leave at that, that I cleared a 40 foot TT with it
