Best way is to red scotch brite them
Panel wipe
High build primer
Flat with 400 grit
Panel wipe
Top coat and clear coat to protect the paint.
Obviously repair any scuffs or kerbing first. Best way if you can afford it is to have them acid dipped. Blasted and powdercoated. I do this to all my wheels even though i get them done at work. But on a budget above will give great results.
