It sounds like the car wash used some kind of chemical on your rim which ur only supposed to use soap and water on most rims...because it takes the anodization out of the lip and makes it look dull and sometimes scratched...hope ur rims are not expensive. The same thing happened to a friend of mine and his Work VS-XX's(19's) and now he's taking the car wash to small claims court because now he has to replace his 4k dollar rims.

it all depends on ur rims...if they're japanese rims such as work, volk, or grams...then no unless u wanna pay to send them back to japan and pay a grip to fix em...if not, contact the company and ask them

actually, I would check with a polishing shop in your area. I have the same problem on my M3 wheels (3 piece) They took the wheels apart and polished the lips for $40 each.
Look into yellowpages.com
