Sterling or Titanium Silver finish wheels?

Am about to order rims for the winter and have decided to go for the 17" five spoke rim featured on the new 2010 sport.

However according to EPC they come in two different colors, Titanium Silver and Sterling Silver finish..

Anyone in here who knows the difference between the two, or maybe even have pictures?

Worst case scenario I order one of each to look at them and return the one I dont want

Sterling silver = silver (link)
Titanium silver = darker charcoal-like (like the SL63's wheels)

I'd go for sterling it looks really good.

Not really a fan of those wheels. I think the 5 spoke 09 wheels look much better.

I was just showing color lol The pic of vic is that wheel in sterling. Not just a flat silver like normal wheels but a bit more metal-like color. I like it.

I have these wheels for winter: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VagH3b9Tpa...43d8a02f_b.jpg

17/225 is the ideal size!

This is sterling: http://www.powerwheelspro.com/shop/images/Jose%205.jpg LOL C63 WANNABE
