go back to canadian tire and buy some Mothers crome polish and that should restore the shine, after you bring back the shine, take a good wax, and wax ur rims this way they stay alote cleaner and the brake dust dosent stick as much, just use a soft terry cloth with the wax, so that u dont scratch the finish on the crome

Good Luck

im not sure if chrome alloys have a clear coat paint on them but most alloys do,if so the cut and polish compounds for your cars paint will remove most stains and road crap from your mags.
if they dont have a clear coat you may want to try a cut and polish for metal.

hope this helps...

Mothers Billet polish works wonders on wheels and chrome trim pieces.

never use those rim cleaner stuff.

regular washing will keep them clean.
