Ahh yes, that could be an issue - wise not to soak.

@weldboy
Hit the wheels with Loctite Rust Neutralizer (good stuff), patch the back with JB Weld or Blue Magic Quik Steel, then paint 'em.

A great restore,
@weldboy
!
Another option is this stuff.
@glrasmussen
put me on to it.
Available at Wal-Mart in the household cleaner / laundry section of the store.
This was less than a minute each wheel. Toothbrush and rinse.

@weldboy
Give it at try, yours looks like a great prospect. I have only one fail, think it was a dog stop wheel... Paint peeled.
This is another done with what
@MacEggs
mentioned.
