The gray is the same as the silver when dirty.


Well.... maybe not.

I have comp gray on my DSOM and love them. Even when they are dirty the metallic in the gray paint shows and it looks like diamond dust when the wheels are in the sun and clean. I like that......diamond dust! Hmmmm........have to try and compete with adjectives for the people with chrome and wheels that are stock and polished.
