If you want to paint them black.....paint them black but that is not they way they were raced...
I can't remember seeing any period pictures of Comp 289 or FIA cars with black wheels either but I found this pic of what I assume is GT/101, possibly ready to fly back to London after its NY showing, and it's wearing black painted wires....


Cheers,

BTW...I'd paint them black
