Yea those lips got to go, sorry.

Polish them out would be best, if not then paint them the same silver color as the other parts of the wheel.

If you paint the lips black the wheels will look a lot smaller.

Thanks,

what you need is for set of hands
2 flat head and rag
slowly work around the rim and you sell see the lip move
