here is the junk i was talking about, also only came with 2 center caps. someone posted that they could get them for $27 a piece. i need to get ahold of them and see if they can still get them for that price. also anyone know the weight difference between these and the teardrops. iirc these weigh in at 17 lbs

Stone did this to a set of rims. I don't know if your rims need this, but it's an option to think about.

It is corrosion.
Easy to sand that out and re-paint though.
I did my 16" teardrops with Duplicolor Wheel paint, they came out great.
Clean the inner wheel. Don't let the balancer guy put weights on them like shown. Make him use the stick-ons on the inside. You'll like the looks better that way.

it looks like it is in the clear coat, so i am going to have to follow the write up zach did here
warning large picture, wife's camera is much better than mine. this is after i scaled it down more than %50.
and on a side note, i need to finish my photo hosting web page, much easier than one at a time on here.

that looks more like something is on it try washing them with like simple green. and polishing them with something meant for PAINT like white rubbing compound.
if not then there is something more wrong with them.. now i am color blind but doesnt that spots seem to look pinkish?
to get them powder coated when you take them there they will sand blast them so no need so sand...
yes
