Rusted spokes
Alright guys I am in some need of help here. I have a 07 wdg and the spokes rust up big time. I have tried using S.O.S. pads to this stuff called lace luster for spokes. Has some polish stuff on it and u wrap it around the spokes to take off the rust. Well I was wondering if 1) is there an easier way to remove the rust? 2) would say a spay can of clear coat work on keeping the rust off? 3) What other spokes out there either brushed aluminum or chromed wouldnt rust?
Thanks guys.
PS if this has been covered forgive me Currently deployed and the internet sucks monkey nuts over here in Baghdad

Well Jay first off, thanks for giving us our freedom back at home here bud, 
With that said, I know what you mean, and have looked myself over the last couple years. I'm not into the painstaking labor of trying to keep them derusted, cleaned and then polished, it's pia.
eventually I'm gonna either have my wheels powdercoated black, so the rims won't rust and then pull the spokes out and put in stainless spokes, or just go with a mag wheel. I love the look of spokes but damn, the work involved is bull. Either way won't be cheap so haven't decided what to do. Because somebody else would be doing the work who knows what they are doing with lacing and trueing...
