Default Rusty wheels!!

All of a sudden my discs have started to rust on my wheels.
Anyway I can get rid of the rust and shine them up without causing problems with the breaks etc??

Leave it. It's fine. Your disks can rust over in one night. Next time you go for a ride your brakes will take that off in no time at all.

I've always found that those green scouring pads for cleaning pans do a great job of shining up discs. They tend not to scratch either which is a bonus.
