If your willing to take a chance, look into getting the acid washed. Most local mobile pressure washers will do acid washes.

It will leave the rim looking pretty dull, just break out the Autosolvol or mothers and get busy.

Also glass media blasting or walnut shell blasting can take the CC off, but a little more elbow grease is needed to polish them up.

I know a shop in kingston On (Perma Buff) charges roughly a $100 per wheel, that was to polish my aluminum alloys to a mirror like finish.
