I like the creamsicle wheels on a red car, too.

Just buy a few cans of spray paint in your favorite colors.

Since you asked for ideas, if you are using any of the factory wheels ("hubcap" style or the Sports wheels) then definitely silver. Not silver-grey, just plain silver which was the factory-applied color.

Agree with Dwayne. Silver or grey.

I like the orange paint with black wheel combo on my Thing.
