I believe you may mean wheel covers, not hub caps. I'd guess originally they were painted with a nitrocellulose lacquer. The factory color probably varied a bit over the years but in my early years of the hobby, Cook & Dunn's "Flame Red" hobby enamel was pretty much the standard for the red part of Packard hub caps and wheel covers.
