    Hi really tight on time as I will pick up my car in some few days, but I consider repaint my wheels again in right gold color. Anyone have the color code?

    I know some will say FERRARI - 138364,430 - ORO Effect or Golden Oro paint code VOC-790, but I dont think the local paint shop will understand this.

    So what should I say to paintshop so they get right color?

    This color would look nice

    I agree that the center cap and lug bolt color changes may make you feel different. I also think you need to see the color in natural light. Florescent shop lights can be misleading.

    In case someone out there in future wants to paint their wheels gold, I got this paint code Oro Lucido PPG code 138364

    So this is the gold color for 458 Speciale wheels, I hope paint shop can make in time

    It's more of a bronze color on the 458 than gold, great looking color.

    Yours currently are more goldish color is not optimal I would put it.

    Part of the fun of having Challenge wheels is choosing a color for them.

    My F355 Challenge came with three sets of Challenge wheels. In 1995 it raced with white wheels...

    I use that set of wheels today with all its original rubbing patina intact...

    In 1996, it sometimes raced with blue wheels...

    Those wheels are black today and I have rain tires on them...

    The third set is in silver...

    I have slicks on that set and it serves as a standby set for the slicks on my white set.

    I like the blue Challenge wheels which match the blue hood stripe. Perhaps I'll repaint the black set to its original blue in the future.

    Rezza, you have the original F355 wheels. Have fun choosing the color you want for your Challenge wheels.
