What I've used in the past on a set of TT D's polished lips that were stained by oxidation and brake fluid was aluminum wheel cleaner, 0000 steel wool and then polish with a wheel attachment on a drill. As always try it on a junk wheel or area and use caution when getting near the painted (or non polished) portion of the wheel. It will change the color on the darker gray portion of the wheel but try cleaning and then use hand polish to just give it a difference in appearance. Also if you don't have a lathe easily available then bolt the wheel onto the rear of a car on stands and put the car in drive and go to town on polishing the lip. Just use caution as this can be dangerous.
