Wheel colour

[Sir Brixalot]

I've got an auto sleeper in l90d and maroon stripes. My wheels look shabby and need a refurb. It crossed my mind to match the wheels to the stripe. What do you think, never seen it done but that could be because it will look rubbish. There's a good chance that I'm going to sell I'm going to miss the summer camping. They're penta in style so maroon, white or standard silver-what do you reckon?

Silver.

especially if you are selling it.

We galvanised and then powdercoated our wheels with RAL 9006 White Aluminium. It's not really intended as a decorative finish since it is based on aluminium particles in a binder, and so the tolerance of the final appearance cannot be controlled tightly enough to allow proper colour matching, but it's got a bit more life than a flat grey and it's a little bit more understated than any of the silver metallics.

Are they standard wheels or alloys?

[Sir Brixalot]

Alloys with plastic centres - Stilautos - bought them from a member on here. 15" similar in style to the ones in the link!

Hopefully they have the correct 5 x 112 bolt holes and not four like the ones pictured.

That's really nice

They're not much different to my Sir Brix:

If it were me, i'd go black centre with a silver/polished lip on a white bus:

Like that. Is it sprayed or powder coated

They’re sprayed mate - Can’t remember what colour now, but also decided to go with a painted lip in silver instead of polished.

That picture is 3 years after i got them refurbed - I use Sonax wheel sealant which stops the brake dust eating into the paint.
