Peeling paint on 20" wheels

My 2010 Flex Limited AWD came with 20" 10 spoke wheels which looked like alloys to me. That is until black areas showed up on the spokes where the silver paint has peeled off exposing black steel. Of course this is not considered a warranty item and there is no answer forthcoming from Ford.
Has anyone run into this situation and how did you deal with it?
Any suggestions for a lasting fix on this problem will be appreciated

Thanks for your interest guys. Obviously both solutions suggested for the fix on this problem would entail a fairly hefty expense and a considerable amount of down time for my car. I guess I have to consider the problem as low priority right now. I'll keep watching the Forum for any other suggestions.
Other than that, the Flex is absolutely a keeper.
