Without pictures, it's difficult to tell how bad the marks are. It is possible to refinish/touch them up yourself. See the link below.

Otherwise, professional refinishing is the other option. Most places charge between $100-$200/wheel. Some companies are mobile and will come to your house to do it.
The only exception to this is if your car is fitted with BBS alloys. These wheels are much more difficult and expensive to repair.
What I always do before having new tires mounted it take detailed pictures of my rims. I then show the manager the pictures, explain to him they were just taken, and that if there's any damage on the wheels when I come back that's not on the pictures, he will be responsible for repair.
