    Wheel Color

    I am working on restoring my Series 3 and looking at painting my wheels. Mine are white. Is this correct or is the wheel color limestone?

    Thanks, Scott

    They came either way alpine white or limestone. If you are going to paint them, you might think about powercoating, its pricey but worth it.

      I would recommend powder coating the wheels that's the way i went.

          I paid $55.00 per wheel. This encluded sandblasting the black off and then painting them alpine white.
