Default painted ten spoke color question

Hi guys,

I am picking up a set of 10 spoke rims to mount drag radials on and want to strip and repaint the wheels. Does anyone know what spraypaint closely matches the painted 10 spoke wheel?

These are only for DR's but I still want them to look decent

I am not 100% sure, but I think you can get rattle cans of it at the dealer.

Would you clear coat them after painting them?

i dunno how you plan on stripping them, but if youre not getting them media blasted i hope you are very patient. i tried to strip my silver 10 spokes with aircraft stripper and it worked somewhat well, but i spent almost a full day on one wheel and it still wasnt perfect. i ended up taking them to get blasted.
