There is a lexsus black pearl that poped like crazy next to GM color code was 217. Look it up
See if you like it.

Thanks for the tip.

Hope this helps, I just painted mine 2 weeks ago. Since then I have the tires/brakes changed and they held up fine. I sanded them bare, 2-3 coats of etching primer, 2-3 of duplicolor wheel paint then, 2-3 coats of duplicolor wheel clear. Came out awesome but its A TON of work
