Default Paint code for C6 Silver painted wheel

Hi,

I just got my first Vette, I'm very happy. Unfortunatelly I've been loosing air in one of the tires. I took it to Goodyear they found a screw in the tire, they patched the tire. The guy working there said is common for the painted wheels to get scratched when they remove the EMT tires, they made a couple of small scratches, they are not visible but if the wheels are that likely to get scratched i would like to get a touch up paint for them.
I found three different codes for the Cyber gray corvette wheels in the color compatibiliy chart for 2009, mine are called Silver-painted aluminum wheel but the chart shows three codes for silver wheels, which is the one for the regular five spoke silver painted wheels, the base wheels for the 2009 c6. I have the z51 package but I guess that doesn't make a difference.
Thanks
Edward

If you are running the Goodyear run flats they take a special machine to dismount or mount them due to the stiffness in the side walls. The Goodyear dealer here in my town won't change run flats because of the problem with the rims.
