I'm assuming Enamel for the wheels.
The consensus of my body man and the paint store where he gets his PPG paint from is that wheels should be shot in single stage Urethane Enamel only - not Acrylic anything and not basecoat anything....

Powdercoating is the #1 best method for any wheel but if you need to match a body color it may be that you have to use paint.
