Any suggestions for cleaning pitted wheels.  The front one isn't too bad but the rear is pretty rough.  Thinking of getting it powder coated if I can't get it looking better.  All suggestions appreciated.

Different grits of sand paper and steel wool.  Working your way to higher grits and then polish it out.

you arent going to be able to get the pits out, without messing up the anodized wheel and once you start on it you and you want that same finish that you are going to have to keep going till you get a nice smooth polised surface. so the really long run on sentence is to say you are better off just power coating them. it a whole lot more forgiving that anodizing anyway. be easy
