What would be the best product to use to clean up a set of rims and what would be my best choice to polish them up?

I’m a huge noob to the chrome rim scene and trust those of you who have used these products more than the manufacturers websites.

Def chrome and not polished. There are a few pits and some dirt around the lug holes/center caps. Nothing that really stands out but definitely need to get in the bits and remove some buildup.
