Default Little Help Deciding

So from the looks of it i might be getting rid of my wheels this weekend and getting some OEM wheels for now till i can get my hands on a new set. My options are,

1. 17x9.5 +38 Work Emotion XD9's in Work Metal Buff /white (i have them but i want a more aggressive offset and a non-staggered set)

2; 17x9.5 +35 Volk CE28's in Bronze or Matte Black

Tires: 255/40/17

*I really would like to go as low at +28 because of the ASM over fenders in the rear but idk if thats even that much of a difference. I know it will fill in the rear more but i think i read on here somewhere that 28's are kinda tricky.

7mm offset won't make any sort of difference look wise, but it might make fitment harder. My thought would be stick to the +35s. Both the white XD9s or the bronze CE28s would be hot. The CE28s will be a tad lighter if that matters at all.

my only concern would be that if i dont stick to black my car is gonna have to much going on. NFR, Carbon +what ever wheel color i get. White sticks out more than bronze but then again you see those everywhere.

I dunno... I almost never see white wheels in my area. I would say that even online bronze is more common than white.
