If you have clear coat, it would be better if it was stripped off.
The pitting, will need to be sanded out. It depends on how deep the pitting is. I would start with a 150 grit and work my way up to a 1000 grit and then polish. Mothers mag and aluminum ploish is the best I have used. I am sure there is better but it works well for aluminum rims.
Be careful, if you open a can of worms here because polishing rims is a long tedious job if you want a show quality shine.

No they dont have it anymore sprayed some wheel acid on it and it turned white and from what i was told if it does that then there is no clear coat on it
