since my wheels aren't as nice as i would like them to be, I've decided to go with some chrome rings to cover up some of the rust (which is a lot more than can be seen in the pics) The rings will cover up all imperfections on my wheels aside from the center caps but they aren't in bad condition

I must admit, the rims look much better in this picture than they really are, i got these rims from the junkyard and the tires were flat, the rims were layin gin the dirt in there is rust all around the outer rim of the wheel, we covered it with souch tough up so it wasn't as noticable but the touch up still stands out a lot, so the only way other than reconditioning the rim, is to just cover it up

it kinda depends, if it is just surface rust, light steel wool should work but in my case the rust was through the chrome and the only way to fix it would have been replating
