I used oven cleaner on the wheels and scrubbed them down with a purple 3m pad came out clean!!, But they were smooth polished wheels not textured... I would media blast them and get them powdercoated...

x2 for Oven Cleaner. My bro used them on his cylinder heads. Squeaky clean. You wont get the dark spots out from the casting texture without sandblasting.
 
so i got two done .used eagle one mag cleaner and a scrub pad and about two hours per rim but they are looking good.when they are done will clear coat and enjoy.

Came out good. 8)
 
The truckwash my buddy works at uses an aluminum brightener that works amazing. He used it on his rims and his dirtbike and I have to say it cleans good. He says you have to clean it off a couple seconds after its applied so it doesnt damage the aluminum. You might wanna call the local truckstop and see what they use.
