Default Question on Painting Wheels.Matching Stock color

Ok i have a 98 trans am with the stock 5 spoke silver alloy wheels.Well after years of driving they are showing some rough signs and need new paint and clear.But seems like every silver color i try is way off from the factory color of the wheels.


My question is what is the actuall color used for the wheels or can anyone provide the paint code or paint name for it .I have had no luck finding either

here is my wheels

I found a single stage acrylic enamel that matched. Mack Truck silver. It is pretty cool. I ended up filling and smoothing my intake, and did my valve covers both that silver. Just have to go to a paint store and look to find which year. I may have the code at home if I remember...
