scratches on stock rims

I have deep scratches on one of my stock rims. Bought the car this way.
Is there any way to fix that? Can I get them refurbished somehow?

theres a couple good places you can go, try searching the tires/wheels forum, there are places that refurbish and fix all sorts of damaged wheels

I also had badly curbed rims when the car was bought. I didn't want to invest money to fix them b/c I'm going to buy aftermarket sooner or later

On my stock rims, I just went to a local body shop and fill in the scratches with clearcoat. It doesn't get rid of them, but helps them hide much better. I really don't care much about them because they'll be my winter beater rims and I'll be getting new rims next year anyway.

Also, another route to go is check the personal classifieds... I saw someone selling stock wheels with tires for like $170 shipped I think for all four.
