Does anyone know the correct color to use on the gold wheels available on the Lamborghini Countach? I have several gold and brass colors, but nothing is close.

You don't want anything metallic, by that I mean with flakes. Perhaps Alclad gold with dullcote or some sort of acrylic gold leaf.

Tamiya rattle can gold could work 

I second that. Tamiya TS-21 Gold. The sheen is good as is, no clear over needed. It will look a little better if you decant and airbrush it. The gold wheels below were airbrushed TS-21

That is an unusual (satin metallic) color. I wonder if adding bit of silver paint to the brass/gold paint would give the right look?  That is if you airbrushing them of course.  Do a spoon test before painting the wheels. :)
