White Wheel Repair

I washed the MINI today, and noticed a pretty nasty chunk of paint taken out of one of my white wheels. I didn't hit a curb (and this looks nothing like that anyway), so I'm almost positive it's a rock chip. Is there anything I can do? I can live with it if I have to...I have a bonnet chip I live with. (No matter how hard I try to touch it up, I always end up using lanka to remove it. I live with it now. I'm thinking about naming that one. ) Anyway, is there an easy way to fix this? Is there a touch up paint that will match? Better yet, will touch up paint endure the punishment brake dust dishes out?

The MINI touch-up white(not Pepper white) roof paint matches my white holies. I use a tooth pick to apply the paint, not the brush that comes with the paint, as the brush holds to much product to do thin layers.
