You can try a heat gun on low, usually will loosen these up. Then goo gone for the residual adhesive.

Re: 88' GTA Rear Decal removal

The wheel would certainly work. As always, the method is only as good as the paint underneath. For something that small though, I'd use a plastic razor blade. I get 'em from my sign shop, but they're cheap on Amazon or wherever. I find uses for 'em around the house all the time. Then of course goo gone to clean up the residue.
