Go to Bavauto.com, under detailing, then wheel and tire care: there is an "alloy wheel repair kit" for $55 that might work for you

My Ride: 07 530i Mystic Blue
Go to autozone to buy flat black spray paint along with fine grit sand paper. Carefully sand down the scuffs and mask It well. Then spary the area twice or so. You don't have to take off the wheel if you mask and cover up the car. Easy $10 DIY job. Not perfect but does the job. Good luck.

Same thing happened to me with my 172 wheels last Saturday, as my gonads went to my neck from sound of my rims carving into the sidewalk. I feel your pain!
