what you are seeing are marks into the clear on the wheel and there is a good chance that they will never come out without sanding

Would not hurt to try. Depending on what the wheels are made of and the area you are talking about, you might could try some very fine steel wool followed with some polish.

The wheels are made of machined aluminum. This seems like the least aggressive approach, so I guess I`ll start with this and see if it takes care of it. If not, I`ll move up to some very fine grade sand paper. What`s a good metal polish to follow up with? Since it`s machined aluminum, I don`t know if it`d be best to stick with a product formulated specifically for aluminum or if there`s an all purpose metal polish that`s just as good if not better.
