Silver wheel paint match

For the E92 range. I've tried Halfords and it's too dark. Any recommendations?

There are a number of different paint codes for wheels but I think the main one is reflex silver - A44/BMW WA44 MET. Your best bet is to find a car paints specialist and check against their colour cards
