paint for wheels
Can anyone recommend a paint to match the (argenised?) wheels on my 1953 G9 ?

Before you think of painting your rims, think how you are going to get the tyres on and off. I have seen some lovely painted rims with deep chunks taken out due to tyre removal. And im sure they said they were going to be careful too

I've used these on ally rims and they are good.

Top tip - if it needs more than 2 bolts to hold it on, its probably important...

Re: paint for wheels
Zinc sprayed and then polished can give a similar effect and won't rust and stands up to tyre levers very well. Firms that make/repair agricultural equipement do this. You might have to polish it yourself.
