Default Wheel Touchup Paint?

I have a couple small (1/4 inch or so) rubs on my front right wheel. Can someone point me to a good solution for touch up? I've heard in the past that "sparkle silver" is, or used to be, the name for the paint color Jaguar used. Is there a touchup pen available here in the US?
Thanks in advance

I experienced a little curb rash - only once thankfully - on one wheel and had Alloy Wheel Repair take the wheel off and repair it "properly" (IMO) like it never even happened.

A quick internet search and I see all sorts of choices in your area...should you decide to go that route.

Good luck.

I also have a small curb rash and will take it a shop that specializes in this type of repair, typically $35-50 if relatively minor. Visiting this month hopefully. I will take before and after photos.
