Rustoleum wheel paint?

Anyone here ever used Rustoleum's rattle can system to redo your wheels? I'm in the middle of redoing my 87 oem silverado wheels. Got the primer on, but I'm have a bit of a dilemma with the clear coat. I have the paint, but nowhere in town sells the clearcoat. So I'm looking at waiting 4 days to have some shipped to me. On top of that, I have read some reviews saying that their wheel clear, is semi gloss at best. I'm looking for high gloss.

But something tells me it wouldn't be a good idea to just buy some regular rustoleum high gloss rattle can paint. Its not made for wheels. Or is it? Would it hold up well? I know guys here have done the Rustoleum paint job, but wheel paint is often subject to more punishment than fender paint is. Right? I must admit I'm certainly no paint and body guy and my experience with this type of thing is quite limited. What would you do? Wait, and order the semi gloss wheel clearcoat? Or take a chance and get some high gloss Rustoleum, but its not made specifically for wheels.
