Great write up in the wiki on doing these wheels with the paint colors and all.  I Havent been here in a very long time and to see my old bike having questions asked about things I did to it is awesome.  If I remember correct I used Duplicolor metallic blue 2 part type paint you spray a metallic silver base coat then finish with the blue over it.  At the time when I did it, it was the closes color I found to the Suzuki blue on the bike.
