Default Wheel paint color

There are two paint colors listed for the 2015 Z51 stock silver wheels. Torque Silver, paint code 5YV.
Silver, paint code Q7S.
Which one is it.
Thanks..

Those are rpo codes not paint codes. They are the same wheels, just in different packages that can be ordered. You need paint code WA-8867 according to the chart in the sticky.

A while back there were some paint codes posted and for the Z51 painted silver wheels it was supposed to be WA-8867, Ultra Silver. I purchased some to touch up some small chips and the color appeared too dark-almost drew more attention to the touched up area than the chips themselves. Adding a clear top coat didn't improve things, so I'm still kind of stuck. I may try some hobby shops to find a small bottle of silver/gray that may be a closer match. I've got several months of Winter storage remaining so there is time...
