Anyone know the standard wheel colour for these, and a paint code would be great. :thumb:

Surely just a high power silver paint code can be used. Not sure on the exact code TBH.

i may be wrong but im sure its just called aluminium silver. but as above any alloy silver paint will look good enough properly sprayed and lacquers

Have you started to refurb them yet Jay? Maybe get a colour chip and match them? TBH any Vauxhall silver will look good IMO.

I reckon it will be star silver. VW use the standard Golf/Bora metallic silver on their wheels.

my wife had a astra sxi a few years ago in star silver
when i went to my local vauxhall dealer for a touch up
paint, i was told there was three different shades of star
silver depending on age of car.

but there cant be much between them
