To avoid discoloring my wheels I put 1/2 inch of acetone in the bottom of my container and then an old grill (the sort with legs on used with oven baking trays) then put the wheels on that, so totally out of the Acetone. The vapor will un-glue the tyres, but it does take a little longer!
I have also tried the steamer method and it is a lot quicker/cheaper. So far I have not encountered any build up of brittle glue left on the rims. However if your worried that it will then every once and a while give them a soak in acetone.
