I think silver is more of flat finish, whereas the silver polished looks more to be a machined/brushed finish.

This is polish by Trafficstar. Under the light, it will have some rainbow reflection.

This is Silver by Trafficstar. It has clear coat so it still has a bit shine under the light. But no rainbow reflection.

So what wheels are you going with???
