$250 set of Torque Thrust II's a bad deal?

I just picked up a set up TT II's for $250 Wheels and tires. They look really good from 5 ft back, but upon a closer inspection reveals blotchy stains. Does anyone know how to get rid of these stains? I'll post some pics at some point. What are most used TT II's going for these days? Did I get ripped?

Try some Mother's Billet Aluminum Polish. It's about $15 for a small amount of it, but it works wonders on my aluminum wheels.

Looks like this



That stuff is awesome. Makes fuel rail look like you spent hours polishing them in just a few minutes.

Polish the crap out of the lip, paint the spokes charcoal grey, and then clear coat the whole rim.

From then on all you will have to do is wash the rims and they will always look awesome!
