how long have they been there??
your rims are prob clearcoated (if they are stockers they are clearcoated, and most aftermarket wheels are also clearcoated), just like your paint...
first thing i would try is washing them, drying them and then using vinegar on the stains. i would also try a detailers spray.
if those dont work, your clear has been etched (kinda like craters in the surface) and you will need to be more aggressive... a polish is your next friend in this case! i would first try a swirl remover, believe it or not-
try the vinegar/ detailers spray first and report back!!
