Dont know how it would turn out on your rims but I head 2 GSR/Special Edition wheels that were painted black by someone before I got them and I used paint stripper on them and they actually were nice and smooth for the most part.

Re: rim question.....!! (my93hatch)
what is your goal? strip down to the original finish or re-paint?
for any paint to have stuck the clear on the rims had to have been sanded plus the paint stripper will take the clear off anyway.
sorry, but you'll have to either sand them down and re-paint or re-clear. the OEM machine finish is going to be hard to replicate with hand tools...
