Some people call them twisties and most people call them blades. This isn't posted in the right section anyways. I have no experience with rims.

I actually had a coating on my GSR blades on my last car. It began to peel off, so I used a scouring pad, wheel cleaner, and a power-washer to clean them up, and then got some wheel polish and applied that...they looked pretty nice afterwards...

strip the wheels, sand with 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1500, apply mother wheel polish, look in the wheel and tires section theres a FAQ on how to polish wheels
