I think that color would require some mixing, dunno somebody experts on paints can chip in.To me it looks more of Titanium Silver ( 1D4). but a lil darker addition to the Graphite color.
That is just my opinion.
I had got the interior panels changed to that Sporty look. These were similar to Toyota Prado in UK and Asia. I think is this the color you are looking.

We may be talking about the color Hyper silver. I have an 08 with the Titanium Silver 1D4 exterior. My 08 wheels are darker. Hypersilver, is a darker graphite color. Part of that color, is spraying the silver paint, over a black primer. Sorry, I haven't put enough effort into asking the Lexus Dealer for the Hypersilver paint code or contacted one of the local paint shops, that refinishes the pitted wheels.

Depending on the light, and whether or not the wheels are waxed, they are much darker than Titanium Silver, 1D4
