Default 15" big/skinny setup that is coated and looks good on Pewter TA?

I had 15" Billet Specialtie wheels before but they were a PITA to keep clean. If these 17's with DR's don't pan out I want to go back to 15's but with a coated (clear) wheel that doesn't need polished. Light and looks good on a Pewter TA.

I have Weld RTS wheels and they're extremely easy to clean. I still polish them with a mag aluminum polish, but it only takes about 3 minutes per wheel, I don't have to spend hours on them like I do with my CCWs.

And on my Mom's car.

They also come with a black center.

And the best part is they're designed to clear LS1 brakes!

That was my next question. I had BS 15's but they tarnished quick since my car lives mainly outside. They had some spots hard to get into and took some time to polish. That is the reason I like coated wheels. Are these coated? They look great!

What does it run for 15x10 and 15x3.5's?

I hav been torn between these two set of wheel and the racestars. They all fit over the stock LS1 brakes without modification. Does anyone know the weight difference between these three sets by chance?
