You will need to strip off old paint. Normally dip them in an acid bath or suchlike.
Look up your nearest Wheel Painter.
Of course tyres off as well.
Just had my bike wheels repainted with a sprayed on coachline in red. Nice job.
£80 both wheels.

As you want to totally change the colour, I think you'll need a proffesional wheel refurb place and not just a quich spray job.
