you can remove the hub, but you would have to use bolts to put it back, which will make the wheels look shite, to get the crud out of the hubs poke a cloth through with a screw driver, then pull the cloth through quickly either way to rub out the dirt, brake rub can be rubbed away with soft grade wet n dry, then polish up a bit to get rid of the sanding marks....
