Question about OEM 19's

Nothing is coming up on the search so here I go...

Someone once mentioned on this forum that the OEM 19's came in 2 different shades... silver or gunmetal. Is this true?

Appreciate it!

I've noticed it in person as well. I think someone with an 05 had one of his wheels replaced by the dealership and it didn't match the rest either, so theres a good chance its true

Hm, so there's no hard evidence other than what people judged by what they've seen?

I have never seen anything firm on it but have seen the darker and lighter together. They are not as far off as silver and gunmetal.

Interesting. One last question: does anyone have a side by side comparison picture?

Thanks!
