There's also the second link which has been around for a while, I didn't have such great results using their filler.

Thanks for the links. Yes, I did a few searches and read some tutorials on DIY fixes, including that second link you posted. Most of the results were quite good. I've got clearcoated aluminum wheels, so I can't really fill any divots. I did take a Dremel tool to mine and knocked down the real nasty spots but they still look like crap. I've had the car now for a year and a half so it doesn't bother me as much anymore. It's also a good excuse to get new wheels.
