Im not an Xpert but you mught just be able to polish of buff the shit out. Caswell Plating sells kits for polishing. THen maybe get the plug N plate chrome kit to toach up? I would go on a forum like www.hotrodders.com and ask them guys are good. Just my 2 cents good luck
well underneath your screen name its says your a balla, so just buy some new ones. try using eagle one never dull and just try and work the shit out of it, thats what i did with some rims i used to own.
yea im thinking of a repair kit. i dont care it it doens't look neat, i just wanna fix it and stop it before it spreads. any body else know any options or solutions?
lol maby i should change whats under my name then right?
what does that eagle thing do?

you know that this is an old trick but i have never done it they say that you can get ketchup and foil and rub the rim where the chrome is its supposed to take off the rust never done it thoughit only works on chrome i think

nah for gold you need to use mayonaise
goto the store and buy some turtle wax chrome polish, its removes rust from chrome
