Title: Wheel colour
Post by: simonpen on 14 November, 2019, 06:24:59 PM
I have a 1969 Rallye S which has pale silver wheels. Does anyone know the name of this colour? I believe that in '69 the wheel colour changed from the usual ivory colour, which I like, to this silver, which I do not. ta

My info is they used Argento Nevada (which was a Fulvia body colour) for the alloy wheels, but the steel wheels generally are much more grey, the cream is Avorio Chantilly.

Thanks Tim. My Rallye body colour is supposed to be Argento Nevada Metallizzato and is different to the wheel colour, it has been resprayed and is very metallic, almost metal flake. Inside the engine bay is a much more subdued colour which could well be the same as the wheels. I do not like the metallic colour so perhaps a full repaint is called for.
