Default New wheels

Well, the time is getting nearer for me to buying new wheels. I'm gonna need new tires in about 10,000 miles or so (that's only 3 months away by my daily commuting). So, with new tires comes a wheel upgrade.

I only had a couple requirements: 20" diamter and easy to clean. Now, the easy to clean has its own set of requirements, which really limits the universe of wheels that I can even consider: no exposed wheel lugs, no rivets or cap screw like adornments, nothing with a lot of grooves or exposed sharp points or edges, etc. etc. Now, these requirements make it really hard to find something, so I have to give a little on some of the considerations (although exposed lugs is not one of them, its just too damn tedious to clean around these things)

So, I have decided to go with either the Boze Blade model (listed first) or the Boze Big Mama (listed second). The Blade is my first choice, but those screws get to me. And the Big Mama has a boatload of grooves to clean brake dust out of. What do you guys think would be the better of the two?
