the paint code of your vehicle is on the drivers side firewall inside the engine bay. you have to order the paint and get a sprayer to apply it. as far as i know you can't get that stuff in spray cans.

the rims are worth about 150$ a rim new from what ive seen (someone correct me if im off) unless you try and buy one from a dealer then they are over 400$ They are a relatively light weight 15" rim in a 4x114.3 lug pattern which makes them pretty wide spread as far as compatability. Id say you could prob get 300-400$ for a set used. What condition are the tires in that are on them ?

Used stock rims are worth different things to different people. And like comatose said, I don't think they sell that stuff in rattle can form. I'd say offer to sell for like 150-200 for your stock rims. That's how much I would sell mine for since they aren't anything special.

Eh, I don't really know how much I SHOULD/WOULD get for them. You do have a good point though, they are relatively light and would fit alot of different cars. I'm just saying, I would probably make someone very happy for getting a set pretty cheap. Plus, whoever had mine before must have thought that it really was a rally car, because I got rock chips all over all four rims, and my front bumper. My situation aside, just offer the price for what you think you would buy them for, then go from there.

The most i got for my o.z. rims was 200 shipped....i started the price at 300 but not much interest in them...and they are not actual o.z.'s....they are enkei's.

EDIT I now see that that was previously stated, sry.

That's the exact price I thought they'd sell for, I guess it just depends on what the people are in the market for.

OT: I was reading your sig and noticed something... Did you really make a violin with your hands?!? YOU, MY FRIEND, ARE TALENTED!

I agree about $200 for a set of used stockers, maybe a bit more with good tires on them. As far as paint, you can get the right color mixed at an autobody supply store, but you need to buy additives and use a sprayer. If you're planning on painting rims, don't do it. They chip very quickly and should only be powdercoated or anodized imo.

run a search, someone had posted a site for a company online that mixes the paint for you and put's it in rattle cans for easy application.

If i find it, before anyone else does, i'll post it...

If I played the violin I'd definently check that out, but I don't so I won't spend my money.

Anyway, I wouldn't paint my rims either, only because I want black, and the for some reason the stock OZ wheels look really weird to me when they are black. Well, the ones that I have seen anyway.
