Default paint choices for wheels

I have a set of 5 spoke gsr rims and i plan to paint them black or gunmetal in the near future. is there a type of spray (brand or texture) that will stick well?

Any advice for preparation? Can you spray on a clear afterwards, would that help the paint stay in good condition afterwards? I'd like to avoid spending the money for a powdercoat.
