Help identifying the IM numbers for My 29 Model R & a Bit of Advice

I was called by my paint shop guy today (finally!) and its time to pick the colors. The wife and I kind of want her to look like the attachment which is a bit darker than her colors when we bought her but looks much better.
From the IM chart I believe the top 1/3 (molding, windows) and lower is Seal Brown (IM-52) and the upper lighter color is Cashew Nut Tan (IM-51). One issue is I have wood spokes not wire wheels. The red sure looks snazzy on the wire wheels but I"m not sure that that color is appropiate for the wood spokes. To make the spokes stand out I guess clear would work........opinions please!
Anyway, Please check my IM numbers against the pic and please let me know. Also please feel free to toss in ideas on the wheels.
Thanks
Jack
