Alloy wheels stone chips

I have noticed while washing my car that there are quite a few stone chips on my alloys and some rust specs on one. I will get some pics tomorrow. What kind of condition are yours in?
Car is a 63 plate with 13000 miles and the alloys are 19" sliver gtc ones.

i had my alloys powder coated as they were curbed to death by the wife
some types of alloys seen prone to stone chips a good alloy wheel cleaner usually clears up the rusty spots but pics a must so we can see how bad they are ![[Image: DSC03659_zpssmtodvyc.jpg]](https://s179.photobucket.com/user/tucpal/media/DSC03659_zpssmtodvyc.jpg.html)

Just an update on this, I had a close look after cleaning my car and it looks like they have had the worlds worst refurb :(. I can see the original paint showing through the chips. I will be getting them refurbed myself at some point!
