you can use a metal polish like this. it should do the job. however, just so you know, this isnt something you could ever use on wheels that have any coating or paint on them.

What about me I have 18" inch tenzo r rimms with a polished lip. I have a couple small scratches on the the inside part of the lip from like sand or stones getting kicked up. Not the outer lip next to the tire but inside on the lip

you can use this on a polished lip just the same. even if the lip is chrome, the abrasives in this polish are fairly mild, but still strong enough to remove defects with a few applications without harming anything. if you have a defect on painted wheels you need to figure out if they are painted or powder coated. If they are painted you need to determine if they have a clear coat on them or if its just paint. These variables will affect how you approach removing the defect.

you can poorboy's professional polish, non-abrasive (great and safe for anything metal), if not, you have to step it up to some abrasive polishes like the SSR lineup, but be careful you know exactly what your wheel's finish is..

but if it's anything like the scratches on my 03 EX/6g Si alloys then you have you'll have to get them refinished, which probably includes wetsanding and "re-clearcoated"
