Paint has as much to do with the prep (Probably more, actually) as the paint used. First thing to do, is bead-blast the wheels. That gives them a very good surface finish. Then find a good wheel paint at the local parts store. (It's usually going to be a higher temp paint than the typical enamel.)

Get one can of primer, and color(s) of choice. Follow the directions.
