Try getting the clearcoat on the wheel buffed. Or try doing it by hand with some fine compound. That should get all of the fine scratches out if there is any on the wheel, bringing back the shine.

Anyone else have input??

On my first gen, it was as easy as polishing them just as you would the paint.
