Anything is POSSIBLE. It is a scratch, or a gash? If it is a scratch then just try buffing it and hope for the best

Its a scratch, and they are chrome clad. Not solid aluminum, so polishing is not an option. thanks

If it was the aluminum wheel, then it could have been sent in to get redone. I had a big gash in my wheel after getting tboned, and they sent it to some place, came back looking new.

I've got 4 chrome-clads with the original 275/60/20 Goodyears all in outstanding condition with less than 10K miles; I plan to go to 22's so I will sell these soon. If you are close to Central Texas they will be available for pick up in the near future. Not sure on price - but reasonable - make offer if interested.
Thanks,
toxdoc
