I have the same wheels, if the insides (behind the spokes) are bad use .000 steel wool (found anywhere for 3 6 dollars), than the polish.

What did U polish them with, they are suppose to look like mirrors. use Meguiars mag & aluminum polish. take them off, grab so beer and have at it.

They were in ROUGH shape and I haven't wetsanding them with 1000, 1500 & 2000... Then I would follow them up with Adam's No. 1 & 2...
I do not have the time to finish them up, hence why chroming them has now become an option.

Having owned polished CCWs, I offer this opinion: chrome them. Honestly, they were one of the worst purchases for my old Camaro...I never wanted to drive it because I never wanted to run into anything that would make the wheels dirty. Cleaning them was a nightmare, and all it took was one puddle.
