Just tried this! Liquid wrench and a plastic razor blade and black latex gloves for friction (and hand protection) - did not need to remove the wheel. It dissolves the tape in 2-3 minutes! - cleaned up little residue left with a squirt of WD-40. Works like a charm. It is a penetrating oil similar to WD-40, but works quicker and easier to get it started.

For tire changes, I remove the wheels, clean them thoroughly, remove the weights with dental floss instead of prying them off with a screwdriver as shops do and use Goo Gone or similar products to remove the tape and then finish it off with alcohol to remove the Goo Gone oils. Wheel weights stick better to a clean wheel.
