Altima wheels
 

I have a 2003 Altima, 3.5 with 17" OEM painted mag wheels. The wheels have had a few run-ins with curbs and suffered a few scratchs to the paint. According to my dealer there is no touch-up paint available, no paint code, no info whatsoever. Has anyone come across a paint to match?

your best bet with something like that would be trying to match them at a paint store. i believe that technically they are coated, and not painted, as is the case with most wheels, but im not sure because ive not seen your wheels.

if you want to save money rather then getting a shop to check it out is to paint it yourself with a few cans that you may think is the right color. when it comes to color i always trust myself of the guy at the body shop, but thats because im a artist and so i know what colors need. but experiment its fun and you will learn while you do it.

if you get sick of the stock color, u can even sand them down with sand paper, then prime them, and paint them any color you want, i would go with black i have :D

powder coating may also be an option.
