Since you're gonna repaint the rim, i guess it makes no diffence if you sandpaper it with little scratches but with a clean surface, do a nice paint job over it.

You can scrub your rims with lots of thinner too.

Agree with prodigy, sand it.

thinner is fast BUT provide poisonning gas when mix wif paint & smells like HELL!!!!! can kill ur lung if u smell it,so if wanna use thinner better wear industrial mask,wif air filter 1...;)

summore i dunno u hav 2 buy how many tins of thinner for ur 4 rims lolx:D

sand it better coz even u use thinner later u oso need 2 sand it 2 let ur new coat of paint hold stronger...try sand paper number 200-400,its hard n tired for u 2 sand but its better for ur paint 2 hold wif tiny scratches...
