The sos pads should take off the surface rust but if it's thru the chrome all you can so is clean it as good as you can and maybe spray with chrome paint

For small scratches on a Chrome Hub Cap, "wad-wrinkle" up some kitchen Aluminum Foil and rub that over & into the scratches (across, not with the scratch direction), then wax to seal it in. SOS can scratch easily, use 'Chrome Polish' to clean & polish the Hub Caps, gets most junk off them.

I have always used 0000 steel wool and it works great.As stated earlier, you cant remove the pitting but the steel wool does a good job of removing the discoloration and polishing the chrome surface.
