Finish on GTR dark wheels

Does anyone know exactly what finish is on the dark wheels? I've looked at them up close and they seem to be painted dark gray with a light clear coat, but they seem to have a slight sheen to them, almost like a hypersilver finish. One owner told me that he thought they might be some type of ceramic powder coat too. There's no known paint code for them specifically either.

You are correct I do not believe there is a color code unless custom mixed but seem like a Gunmetal color

Which dark wheels?

If it's '09 I believe it's K11

I thought all the dark grey wheels were the same color, but the ones I've been looking at are 2009. K11 is the Nissan paint code? Is that the same as the gun metal metallic color for the body?

The 2010 wheels are black (premium) I think the 2010 lighter gray is darker than the '09 silver, but lighter than the 2009 gray. I'm not sure about this, as I haven't compared them side by side.

But now that I think about it, I think the sides are K11, and I confused this with the color of the wheels that I was going to have painted.

Disregard my confusion...

The 2010 wheels are darker by quite a bit than the 2009 wheels. To me they look more black than anything.

^ Right the 2010 summer wheels are black.

But the winter package is dark - almost as dark as the '09 summer wheels.
