Default Need advice please

I have chrome ZR1 wheels. They are not looking up to par. There is some discoloring and a small build up of black junk where the spokes meet the rim. These corners are hard to get into. What is the best way to get rid of this stuff and polish them up real pretty? Are there any good tools to use?

Thanks in advance.

Tooth brush and cleaner. Put rag around brush to remove polish.

You might want to try Mother's Power Ball. I've seen these, but never tried it yet.
