you cant remove the oxide layer, you can buff and wax the thing to death to get excess off

Re: Aluminum Wheel Oxidation (mhorner23)
Mike,
If it's just the clear peeling you can strip and re-clear the wheels.
If the aluminum is oxidized (actually pitted) stripping, sanding, and buffing are your only solution.
Hope this helps.
