Default Z28 wheels What color?

So I picked up a set of 80's Z28 5 spoke wheels today, trying to figure out how I should paint them, everyone on here has them all black or black with bare metal accents, and there trucks are all dark colors, My blazer is white so I'm looking for pictures of the wheels painted other then black.

You could try white with black accents

Hey any chance you could photoshop some for me? I gave it a shot but... it didnt go so well. Im picking the same rims up from the scrappers soon and im looking to get them painted black with red accents. Right now im debating sending it for a powder coat or just doing it myself.

Just put these on after storing them for almost 15 years. I'm planning on putting black bedliner along the bottom so the charcoal wheels will fit in nicely. They are the originals from my 1985 Z28.

New lugs and caps installed. T-bars cranked and longer shackles installed because the tires rubbed the inner fenders over big bumps.
