Ive heard any good sprayshop would do it, but ive also heard you would have to sell your car to be able to afford it haha.
As for a home job, I havent got a clue but FM-AVA-696 seems to know a bit lol

You'll need, a car with wheels, wet and dry (fine stuff), wire wool, filler primer, grey primer, colour of choice, lacqure, masking tape, lots of coffee and biscuits, a stereo, plenty of time and patience, someone to help (makes life easier)

take the wheels off your car

Remove the wheel and give it a really good clean so theres no sh*t on it at all.

Dry off the wheel and rub it with wire wool to remove the top layer of paint/lacqure off, then rub it all over agin with wet and dry.

Get rid of the dust with a cloth and begin masking off the tyre

Making sure you cover all areas well, first give the wheeels treatment with yellow filler primer, then grey primer. Spray from 20cm away in light coats, building the layers up. See the two different layers

Do this as many times as you can alowing about 10 mins in between coats.

Once dry apply the colour coats to your wheels in the same way, building up the layers bit by bit. Then do the same with the lacqure

Remove the tape and admire

Hope that helps mate
 
or if you want to do it properly, take the wheel and tyre to a tyre centre, ask them nicely to take the tyre off and then go through the steps, much easier then.
