Think its called paint dude. Laquer is gone probe easier to get them painted or buy some more off egay

The yellow tint is from heat build up. Something like Autosmart smart wheels may work but failing that, an acid based wheel cleaner like Valetpro blue acid wheel gel will do the trick. I would advise that you take the wheel off or use a cup / paint can lid and decant the acid in there then apply to the affected areas as to ensure minimal product gets into teh break calipers as it can perish the claiper seals. Do ensure they are rinsed thoroughly also and once cleaned, seal them to ensue this is less likely to happen in future.

HTH.
