What colour for stock wheels please?

  1. Camper resto is moving along nicely but I'm in two minds about the colour of the wheels...The roof and bumpers are L90D so should I go with this colour for the stock wheels?...I'm kind of edging towards silver though... Anyone know what colour they were out of the factory? Main colour of van with be Sage (Tiaga) green.
    Cheers.

  2. Pastel White looks nice, but they were actually silver from the factory (or were on my 78).

  3. However creme looks pretty OE. But then again top of mine is creme.

  5. Whatever colour you paint them a good tip is to rough up the wheel bolt holes before fitting the wheel nuts. Have heard the nuts often come loose if this is not done!

    Silver is factory I prefer the silver to white, whites a bit much for me being as bumpers and half the van are that colour
     
  17. Can you still swing them like Clackers, Baz?
