Heck no! You can't go by the rod bearing colors because they wash off
sometimes and also are 'tinted' sometimes because of oil staining.

You go by the markings on the crank. They are on the first crank throw (the
side nearest the timing chain) on the top row. The top row are the rod
bearings, ignore the bottom row which are crank main journal sizes. Go one
standard size tighter when you replace them and you should be fine.
