Default Paint Colour for AP2V3 WHEELS - non CR silver

I'm running ap2v3 rims in the non-cr silver colour on my car. The paint is just about as durable as the body stuff, i.e. - not that good. I've tried to touch up some paint chips with different silvers I have including my sebring silver touch up paint but I can't match it up very well. Has anyone been able to match the wheel paint colour ?. I read in the UK they have Ford Moondust Silver which matches, but Ford doeesn't use that colour here in N. America. Any info would be great, thankks for reading.

I had to pick a good match for the silver when I refinished my AP1s. The DuPont dealer said that Honda/Enkei didn't publish the wheel colors.

No I never got a good paint match, my Honda dealer was of no help either. I ended up re-finishing the wheels and the paint shop I used was able to give me a paint code if needed in the future. I took the opportunity to paint the interior barrels black, which I love, so in the end it worked out well.
