Silver. White is a thick primer underneath.
For a cost-effective solution, eeuroparts.com sells a metallic silver wheel paint that is supposed to be a good match. They also sell a clear if you want to really make them pop. I put links below.
Beware about stripping them. I had mine stripped and redone, and they looked terrible. It was because that white you see is a really thick primer. Once it's removed, the wheel is very porous. You will need to shoot a thick primer, and ideally, wet-sand it. Then you can apply the top coat. I used a GM silver wheel paint and clear. They've lasted really well. The job was done by Speedway Metal Refinishing in Costa Mesa, CA. Twice.
Here's the link for the clear:
