Guys, i have some EB XR alloy wheels sitting here. You know the 5 spoke ones. I want to fit them to my car, to replace the 12 slotters. The alloys have what looks like minor corrosion which has gone under the clear coat finish. It looks like small worms nuder the clear.

What should i do to make these look a bit better. Polish or Repaint??

I was thinking of paint stripping the clear off and using a polisher to go over the wheels and brighten then up.... I dont want to ruine the machined finish on the wheels either!!

Does anyone know of a good place in Melb i can take the wheels to get re-finished??

polish would probably look better but paint would be alot less effort in the long run to keep them looking good
