I've put my 17's back on while doing them as you do need let them dry for a few days before putting them back on (I've also taken the wheel weights off to do a proper job).
It's a good 1-2 days to prep all the wheels, I only had very minor kerb damage on 2 of the wheels that I was was able to rub back enough otherwise you need to use some alloy filler which is a pain in the arse to rub back with sand paper far better being able to have the tire off and then you can a file if needed.
You should invest in a space saver and a jacking kit next mate I was well pissed when I discovered I had a goo kit the dealers should make a point of asking what you want if your buying a new car.
