I am refinishing some IROC wheels. The paint has been stripped and I am polishing them right now. When I am finished polishing them I am going to repaint the inserts the stock gray color. My question is what is the correct paint color code for the gray inserts for IROC wheels between 85-87? I want them to color match the stock ones I have on the back. (these fronts were originally gold...) Thanks for the help. Any suggestions while refinishing are welcome as well as paint/clear coat tips for the wheels.

 

An automotive paint store should be able to look up the code if it is available, otherwise you'll need to take a rim in so they can match the paint. Use an epoxy on the wheels.

 

Anyone got it on hand? Thanks for the reply though...

 

ask on the his board

 

What board? I don't understand....

 

Your best bet would be to repaint all four wheels. Even if you had the paint code there is a chance it still won't match due to factors such as weathering.

 

Silver was meaning to say: ask on the history board.

 

if it will help-here goes, im the orig.owner of an 85 iroc silver body w/gray 16"wheels i found my build sheet years ago and have kept it with the window sticker. heres some data off of them and if it helps guide you towards the correct paint, good- on the build sheet= N96 CAST ALUM.WHL 86P GRAY 82I GRAY TRIM
on the window sticker=12L SILVER METALLIC there is another paper that i found too but i dont know what to call it and in a box marked on the sheet "wheels" it says FAB i dunno wtf it could mean but there it is for you. hope it helps. seeya

 

I also have an '85, could you tell me where you found the build sheet?

 

underneath the carpet right behind the back seat-the spot where you would put packages or groceries, where it is flat. i was running a power lead for an amp or something and i remember that i never wanted to drill any holes in my car, anywhere, so i always seemed to do whatever it took (usually the longest way) to not do that.
