Default RX300 Silver wheel paint

My '01 has a couple of wheels that need a little touch up. Does anyone know what the exact match paint would be?

Years ago, when I was trying to find a paint match for a bicycle, I went to an automobile paint store that had thousands (if not tens of thousands) of sample colors to select from. I'm sure you could find a match in auto paint color books in such a store.

according to this thread, Lexus doesnt have an exacting paint code for the silver wheels but one poster mentioned Honda's starlight silver is an exact match

Not quite an exact match. I tried painting a small section of my rims with the starlight paint yesterday. Checked it today and it came out darker than the rest of the rim. Similar, but you will definitely notice the difference when next to each other.
