Oooh, that girl look nice! I was going to buy a set of 200S wheels for my '68 GS awhile back until I got sticker-shocked. Ended up with a set of 15"X8" 5 on 4-3/4 Corvette Rallyes for $312 delivered. Sits like a steamroller.
Back on topic, if these are really 200S wheels, treat them as has been mentioned to remove corrosion. They are not steel, BTW, so it isn't "rust" per se. A pic would be most informative.
