2016 R60 R141 Anthracite wheel color /code?

I have a 2016 R60 with the mini R141 two toned wheels. Looking for touch up paint for some scratches on the darker anthracite color. Does anyone know the factory color of these wheels? The closest I came to finding the correct color was the BMW MINI ferric grey B55 A80 custom

mixed in the UK but I am still not sure that is the correct color. It looks too light.
see pic of wheel I am referencing.
thanks

If it helps anyone. Mine is the Midnight Grey Metallic C12 color. Since I had to buy the paint for a few small dings on the car I figured I would try it on the wheels to mitigate the look of the scratches. It seems to be a perfect color match!!! No gloss top coat is to be used. From Automotivetouchup.com.

Thank you for taking the time to follow up with us here... many don't go to the effort...

Do you happen to have a direct web link to the color that you ordered?
EDIT:.... Found it
https://www.automotivetouchup.com/to...16/countryman/

Do you have any 'after' photos?

First pic is Before
I just was testing a few colors before I did the work , here is where I tested the C12 MINI color ( the alloy color is still coming through but the color seems to match well)
I am sure you will fix yours before i get around to fixing mine.
