So I couldn't take it any longer and my OCD kicked in and I had to repair and repaint my rims.
Both passenger side wheels had some decent gutter rash.
Below picture is a poor example (forgot to take before pics)
So I took of both wheels and sanded them back.
Time for new tyres - no traction (especially in the wet). Got some Potenza RE002 - much better than the brand the previous owner had fitted (Hero - Australian brand).
Tape the wheel - spend as much time on this step as it will effect the final finish.
Next was to use several coats of filler primer and sanding in-between.
Add a few black coats and a few clear coats and you're done.
Before and after comparison.
NB: Wheels are Rota Grid's.
