I'd agree with RL, however if you can't get that done you might try brake fluid.  Do a test area on inside of rim first though.
A guy I know used it to remove paint from a plastic model train, he said it doesn't afftect plastic so as long as its not a plastic based paint it might work. But do a test area inside.
