Default Which Wheel?

ok, I am not asking to be told which wheel to buy. I am just down to 2 wheels and can't make a decision as to which one to buy. I am posting this in hopes of getting some good info and comments that will help me make a final decision? The car is an 06 Onyx Blue Metalic. The most i might do is lower the car a few inches, but i am not going with many, if any, mods. I have an 01 suburban i am going to do up for power and looks. So these will be on my daily driver. Just in case some of you needed insight as to where i am going with this car.

Choice "A" Ice Metal


Choice "B" Drag Wheel

I'd go with "B" since it's gonna be for a daily driver.

a is more original. more "VIPCAR" style. and more of my personal taste. b is nice, but so played out. probably lighter. in the end i say a. why? personal preference but the biggest reason........by far EASIER to clean!

i think i will go with "a". the "b" is played out. every xb around my area is running those blade or fin type wheels. besides i saw them on a lexus gs400 and i liked it.
