If it is an aluminum rim, got to any auto parts store and pick up some Mothers Mag and aluminum polish. Works wonders, trust me. And don't use a dremel, you will end up putting cut marks in your rim.

Most people probably will not see the damage a dremel can do. I've been detailing cars for a long time now, so I tend to see a lot of flaws. I hate it, cause everytime I see a nice car, I start picking out all the flaws in the paint and everything.
