Clean them up real good with soap and water.

Get some OOOO steel wool and a can of Liquid Wrench.

Soak the rusted areas with Liquid Wrench for an hour, then clean with the steel wool.

Let the steel wool do the work, less pressure is more.

I may take a few times if the rust stains are bad.

After that clean them up again and polish with whatever you want.

You will be surprised how they come out.[/b]

Yes that works awesome. I did that when I had my Nissan d21. The rims where rusted big time but after about 5 hours they looked almost brand new.

As for pics of them on the car I need to get the tires mounted first. It might take a while, too damn cold outside.

haha no offense but chrome rims look funny on such an- anti-bling car! I like the wheels but they dont look like they belong on there.

 

[pokertramp]

Oh I plan on changing that. Once I find center caps I am going to paint them black. I agree, it does look funny,lol

I think black inside and leave a chrome lip would look badass. ill have to get a pic of my rims tommarow. i got one of those "powerball minis" for chirstmas and it worked wonders on my rims!
