If there is currently no rubber mounted on the rim, BONUS.
Alot of folks, including the above wheel vulture, mask off the tire. Cleaning and sanding are very critical steps. Any dirt or unsanded area and you've lost your adhesion.

you can just rough up the surface and/or take off the clear so that the primer has something to stick to....

As far as paint goes, try PMing member Kimmy. She recently painted her rims hot pink. See what it was she used.
