I'm thinking of respraying the white wheel rims, I want to do this myself so can anyone recommend a retailer or specific colour i can respray with?

Cheers.

They should be Old English White - get cans from BullMotif,and others of course. Some say Rover Aran White is very close - probably get that in Hellfrauds.

Your right BG - Arum White. VIN paint code NMF and BLVC code 449.
My TR7 is Aran Beige! Which is where the confusing occurs - happens all too easily these days !

You can also usually get Old English White spray paint under Rover in some car paint catalogues

when I was getting my wheels I think it was just listed in the rover section but the year was mid seventies.
Some local paint factors may be able to supply paint in aerosols too :)

Some Halfords will mix you up celly in a can, I got some OEW for my grille that way, else, buy it from the local paint factors and a cheap HVLP set.
