Rim opinions wanted
Hi everyone,
I'm almost ready to take the leap and get some aftermarket rims for my car and I would like some opinions of the brands I've chosen.
My first choice is the ICW Racing Fusion 447mb below in 17 x 7.5, offset 42 or 45, weight 21 pounds. I'm told that hubcentric rings are needed but I forgot to ask if tuner lugs are needed. Sorry for the big picture...
My second choice is the Enkei Evo 6. 17 x 7, 42 offset, 18 1/2 pounds .
Can you see a theme here? I like the chrome or machined/polished look. I really like the look of the 2006 JCW wheels too. I also like the 2009 factory JCW wheels but I want something that is easier to clean than Crown Spokes. I don't care if the back of the rim is black and, in fact I prefer it. I won't compromise on the outside face of the rim being shiny though. I would rather avoid having to use tuner lugs, spacer rings and so forth. My car is a 2007 MCS with the sport suspension and sport package.
Any other rim suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You will need hub rings and tuner bolts on both of the wheels you are interested in.
