The 1962 GMC data book says all wheels were Olympic White so since we don't know at what point the 17.5" were installed, we have to assume they were a previous owner or dealer installed upgrade from the 15" or 16" it likely came off the assembly line wearing. It came from the factory with Olympic white wheels of whatever size they were and now it has these, but I would absolutely not leave them Black - re-paint olympic white because it looks a ton better with grey anyway
