Dilema......new wheels

I have a dilema people!!
i need new tyres but i feel there is no point getting new tyres when i want new alloys which will come with new tyres anyway!!

so i've started looking for new rims!! (haven't bought new rims in 4 years)
i have found that it was much easier choosing alloys for a silver car than a metallic grey one!!

so i need the advice and experience of the members of UK-P!!
i have some ideas and i'd like ur opinions and photoshops (Tom, ur up!!)

this is the first set, Keskin KT1

second set, ASA AR1

third set, RS6
http://swtyres.co.uk/wheels/audi_prestige/rs6

fourth set, Rial
http://swtyres.co.uk/wheels/rial/daytona_race

got a few others in mind but these are for starters!!

ps- i don't wanna go any bigger than 17s!!
here is a link to my members rides pics

Bear in mind how easy to clean theyll be, cleaning soon becomes a chore.

oh yes i know!
at the moment i hate cleaning my standard alloys because they don't come up very well, they've got bad curbing and burnt in brake dust and just to me look crap!
most of this was done before i even got the car tho!
if i had brand spanking new wheels then i'd make it a weekly job of cleaning my alloys!!

Id like to know if there is any good spray on stuff you can get, just to stop the dust sticking inbetween polishes every couple of months

TT comps would look awesome on yours, maybe in a dark shade?

Cheap aswell.

Meguires Hot wheel cleaner (or something like that) brings em up sparkling but isnt too harsh on the paint.
