..Silver is slightly better than Copper. ( 7% )

Points of note:-
Best heat conductor = Silver & copper ( so why the h3ll do they make hot water pipes from copper ?)
worst heat conductor ( best insulator) = Air
..or Stainless steel if you want a metal .

If You are worried about losing heat from your Aluminium rims, you would get a dramatic reduction by fitting some nice hub cap style covers over the wheels to stop the cooling air flow.
( just like some of the F1 boys !!!?)
