Dings & Nicks in Wheels

[durtyd929]

I've got a few scrapes and nicks in a set of aftermarket deep dish Bulllits I bought a few months ago. They're not really noticeable from a distance, but I'd like to get rid of them anyway. What would be the best method to get rid of them( aside from taking them to a shop)?

if they are bare aluminum you can wet sand them and buff them if the scrapes are not too bad. i got pretty severe damage from running up a curb on my factory bullits. been thinking about trying a dremel tool on em.

i have rock chips on teh spokes of my stock 17's, bothers the hell out of since i cant figure out how rocks even hit that part of the wheel. i think if you have painted wheels, its just like fixing chips on the surface of the car. either live with it or touch it up. i beleive they are painted in the same fashion but i could be wrong.

yikes, right on the edge is a tricky spot. i dont know the best way other than having a pro do something with them. for something like that, we sould sublet it to a wheel company. sorry.
