17" corvette rims
these are my rims, 3 years ago when they actually looked right... I used to be all about keeping my stuff clean, but for the last year or so I ignored it because of a busy schedule and lack of motivation to do it in my spare time, and I didn't realize how bad brake dust could mess things up if left alone
so I went to polish them finally and they're shiny again but covered in little dots that I can't get out... all over
does anyone know if there's something I can do to get them looking right again? or do I need to get them resurfaced? is that even worth it or will I be better off getting new rims?

I don't have anymore pics of the car right now, they're just chrome z06 rims though
I'll try to get a picture of what the rims look like now later this week

Nice wheels. Those dots are probably from brake dust mixing with condensation or water to form an acidic substance. Idk if this will work, but I saw this guy took off the finish on his chrome/polished (?) WS6 wheels and then polished the hell out of it. It turned out preatty good.
