Which spray cans for steel wheels? (1 Viewer)

Hi All!
I'm picking up some stock steel wheels for my 40 and going to rattle-can them gray.
Just wanted to know what type of rattle can you guys have had good luck with and that are a similar color to stock. Color doesn't need to match orig, but close would be nice, a little darker if anything. Local hardware store paint would be a bonus.
Thanks! B.

I used Rustoleum self etching primer gray 2 coats then a coat of Rustoleum satin black on my metal tech roll cage and it came out great. I had a buddy that found a company online that will mix up your original paint codes in a spray can and ship it to you. I think that would be a great option for small patches. I need to find someone that's had their door hinges powder coated I would like to get that done

I went with Rust-Oleum Smoke Gray and seems to be a close match to original. Bought it at Home Depot

Two of my wheels are Rustoleum smoke gray and two are Krylon smoke gray, can't tell the difference in color. Some on here say the Rustoleum Industrial or Hard hat gray is a little darker.
