Off-white. Spray cans of the correct color are available through Studebaker International.

I agree with Bob. If you are going to have the car judged. I however paint my wheels a "Parchment White" which I think is a GM color. It looks better to me as it matches the whitewall instead of making the wheel look like it's not clean. Rob in PA.Comment

I believe Ford Oxford white is a close color to the original. I had mine white and it looked like s**t so I painted them flat black and take the judging deduction. Bob in Welland On.Bob

Wasn't the '64 wheel color a little different than the earlier colors - a little white in it? Early color was a little more like Ford Wimbledon white as below:

Nice wheel, but this is a Truck wheel, Apples and Oranges.
The 1962 to 1964 USA built Cars were Beige, Almond, the off white yellowish color has too much White for a Car unless it is a late '64-'66 Canadian built Car.StudeRich
