When I had chrome wheels on my old truck I used flitz. Stuff was awesome and made them shine up really nice.

If they are the plastic chrome clad, use whatever you use on your paint. Clean them well, polish to get a shine, then go with a heavy protective coating. Either wax or synthetic.

the detailer at the shop i'm at uses an acid etching solution. Its diluted to a working concentration and then sprayed on the rim. let sit for 1 min and then rinsed off with water.
I had brake dust on my rims that could not be cleaned off. polishing did not work well. With the acid soln, the rims are like new.

I will get the name of the product and post back.

here a link of someone using a similar product.
