Repainting - Wheels and Xmember

Hi, as i'm off college now, I need to sort my 90 out, I'm wanting to repaint the rear xmember after the rust is sorted out, and was wondering what the best way of removing the paint is and what durable paint I could use which could also be suitable to repaint my spoked wheels, as they are now showing signs of surface rust. I was thinking most likely a gloss black colour, perhaps in hammerite, due to its good rust protection??

Would go for smoothrite unless you like the hammered finish, tis what the local indi puts on all the repairs he does!

Thanks, I'll give it a go next week then put up some photos to show how they look
