for the record, i just removed the anodized walls of my rims using the cheapest oven cleaner (lemon fresh scent!) i could find at Kroger's. Applied with a tootbrush, let sit for 10-15 minutes, scrubbed off with some steel wool. took a few reapplications and a bit of time/work, but it looks damn good and was very cheap. yeah, de-anodizer would be lovely but i'd rather hit up the grocery store and grab a 6 of widmer with my can of oven cleaner. you can't get that sorta deal through mail order.
