You just need 1 can. I did 1 heavy coat on my wheels and it looks great!
I did my wheels Anthracite Grey 1st then decided to go all black. I much preferred the look of the black as it matched the tires and it looks gorgeous! I do have a white suv and thinks it compliments very well. I looked online at pictures of black wheels and thought it would be too dark or look odd. However, in person it really looks like OEM/professional vs some little kid playing around with a can of spray paint. I did 6 coats of dip and rolled the car back a few times getting areas I couldn't get bc of the angle - make sure you cover your brakes with something. I suspect you could do 5-6 coats easy of glossifier if you wanted to; depends on how shiny you want your rims. I liked my with a slight sheen. Also glossifier is a little thinner than the dip so becareful not to let if run or spray too much at one time.

Good luck!
