Wheel choices
I'm looking at buying a new set of wheels this summer. Orange SS/SC. My gunmetal stockers are trashed, curb rash from the previous owner. However, my dad thinks he can fill the chunks in the wheels, repaint them, and have it look just fine. So, opinions please. I'm looking at the following three sets:

Please let me know what you think. I'm leaning towards the Enkei LS5, with the LF10 being a close second. The motegi's are my last choice, I'm not sure I want a polished lip.
Also, I'm looking for recommendations on tires. The Pirelli's suck. I've heard the Yokahama AVS is a good tire for the money, or Toyo Proxes. I want good performance, good life, and not more than 200$ a tire.
Thank you!

Hmmm..... If I HAD to pick from those I'd say the first ones. But their all a little too busy for my taste. Not hating just saying. I'm more of a fan of the old school.

I'm definetly open to suggestions also. All I know for sure is I want polished black 18s, preferably 5-7 spoke. The only thing I don't like about the first and second choices is the fake rivets, if those weren't there I probably wouldn't be asking.
I'm just not a real big fan of plain spokes on a 5 spoke wheel, I like a little shape to them versus a straight and flat spoke.

The top ones are a lot like my winter wheels, I'm trying to go for something a bit different I think. The second is a little too plain for my taste, I would rather the spokes had a little shape to them.
