Default new guy needs help

hey, im new to the forum. i recently bought some new rims for my 89 accord lxi. they are chrome lipped and have black spokes. the chrome is flaking, and there is oxidation all around. I want to clean these up the best i can but not sure how to go about it and i dont want to completely ruin them so any help is much appreciated, thanks.

Welcome to HAF.

BTW - I am a big fan of the 3rd gen Accords

Might look in the "Detailing" section for ideas.....also a pic of how one or two of the rims might help with the answer.

Thank you for joining.

There's not much you can do with chrome wheels that are flaking except for getting them refinished and rechromed.

Welcome to the forums and have fun searching around the forums threads.

Make sure you read the rules on where to be posting your questions also.
