1 can per wheel (good for about 2 light & 2 heavy coats)
If you are considering vintage gold then I would suggest you go with Copper Metalizer on top of matte black. Check out this A5;

My car is silver with black side decals so I am thinking the black rims might tie in better to the overall look over the anthracite. Thanks for posting those pics and those carrera sports 2's look really nice.

Plastidip is a very good way to play around with the wheel color before you powder coat them.
