Default Wheels - What do you think?

Due to an un-intended problem I am now having a look for some other wheels fo the summer.

I am looking at two options.

Option 1.

Get some second hand and get them re-furbed? This will mean a possible re-furb and new tyres. Seen some nice ones though. One set will need a re-furb and tyres. The others just tyres. See below.

Option 2.

Go for broke and get new ones with tyres?

But will give incorrect speedo readings and it's outside the best setting for rolling circumference for 17" alloys.
