Default Wheel question

What is the name of the color the stock 20" CarreraS wheels come with? I know it looks silver, but I want to find out which silver it is. The current wheels look so much better that any previous Porsche wheels I have seen because of their finish. Thanks.

Official Porsche 991 Carrera S wheel description: "silver-color" - For what it's worth, they seem to be about the same color as my 997 wheels but a bit more gloss/satin.

I'm not certain what Porsche calls the color, but it is similar to what other manufacturers call "hyper silver".

Jim,

Send a PM to our resident paint expert Eric at Bumperplugs. His Rennlist ID is Eric - Plug Guy. He may know or have a way to find the exact paint formula for the 991 wheels.
