Default Rust Question

Ok so I plan on installing my new (used) wheels Friday after I hopefully get the car lowered Friday. My concern is the rust on the axle cap, which can be seen on my OEM stock 16" when you take the center cap off to get to the lugs. This piece has rust on it. I know its not a big deal, but should I bother and take it off? How should I go about this? Thanks

If it bothers you; steel brush, steel wool, fine sandpaper then paint silver w/rust inhibitor.Done.
