Inline-Tube have some decent products. But you have to do your own research, their own listings and what models they fit and why are mythical.

Paint deal in rally iis should do well if you pick a paint that is hard to hirt with a screwdriver strike; like non-sanding gray primer followed by machinery gray Paint. I think the paint melts into the primer for a strong surface.
Had great success with powdercraft doing my rally iis when they were a startup. Now i wonder if they exist, or do rims anymore. Key trait for rally ii success: SOMEHOW prep/fill the center plate to rim gap, so that rust doesn't start and creep out. Inside of rim is a weld but outside is a tnagential gap that harbors moisture for rust. |

I did a similar deal a while back. My take was that the paint was an excellent match, but the stencil kit was trash. The triangle shapes flat out didn’t match the wheels.

Mine needed a little touch-up on the masking also for a good outcome. Factory painted wheels were far from perfect though.

looks good Nyairguard
I have never liked the stencils. Here are mine, sandblasted and epoxy primed (white) , then sprayed silver the masked and sprayed grey than a satin clear coat .... and add some custom centers |

Love those centers , dealing with weather stripping doors and t-top surrounds.. this is my first 2nd gen and out of the eight cars I restored this weather stripping kicking my arse tried metro and Fairchild and both fit poorly

Tempest - that center cap is awesome!
Wheels look great - What brand and paint code did you use?

just used Rustoleum ?? I think. the silver is easy, but I find that the grey can't be too dark, or they don't look right (to me) It was just an off the shelf automotive paint, not sure of name/code? sorry.
the centers were made on a 3D printer by a friend of mine. (and I put many coats of clear on) I am hoping they look good on my 58 Pontiac Wagon (work in progress) |
