Do you think the wheels can be done with lots of tape and paper with them still attached or do you thinkg they have to come off?

Get a deck of playing cards and just stick them between the tire and the rim. Fast, cheap and simple way and it'll give you a nice clean line around the rim edge. No need to remove the tire.I would still remove the rims from the truck to prevent overspray getting on your paint. It's also easier to get a nice even coat and to get into all the little crevices. Good luck.
