Default Repainting some rota's , advice?

Im thinking about trading my stock Blades for a set of Flat Black 15" Rota Slipstreams, thing is , i really want to repaint them Silver/Polished. Whats the best method to strip the paint (aircraft remover/ sandblasting) and how do you think I should go about repainting them Silver/Polished. Im goin for a look kinda like this

If the owner of this car would like me to remove this pic , plz let me know.

You dont have to strip the paint off the wheels. Just sand the wheels with 600/800 grit sand paper or scuff them with a 3m red scuff pad and pray them
