Default Road rash repair

I have one wheel with some decent rim/road rash damage. I'd like to tackle the sanding, filling, painting process. When I recently rotated my tires, I found these markings on the back:

Anthracite EX2M-1007-DA
Silver 9X23-1007-AA

It the Silver a color? Where/How can I get this color to touch up this wheel?

After some experimentation, it turns out Dupli-Color Bright Silver Metallic for Chrysler was an exact match to the other wheels. It looks brand new and came out great. I still need to do some rubbing compound to smooth it out and return the shine after spraying it. Going to give it some time to dry/cure before that step.

You probably need a clear coat on the top to get the shine. Dupli color has one for wheels. But give it a few days to cure first or it can harm the paint finish
