New ones. The old ones are shinier, but the new ones are a much better style.
Fake bolt heads look stupid, just like the old fake spinner center caps on Chevrolets, or non-functional hood scoops on Mustangs. Form follows function, if it serves no function it shouldn't be there.
Are the bolt heads supposed to emulate a bead lock screw? If so, they are in the wrong place and should be located on the edge of the bead. Or are the bolt heads supposed to simulate a two piece wheel? Either way they look stupid.

An abundance of fake bolt heads looks bad, but 2 on each spoke isn't too bad. But some rims that have an overload of them tend to look bad, IMO. The new rims in the first pic looked like they were dirty chrome rims to me also, but I think it'* just the reflection of the textured pavement that makes it look that way. Either way, they're both nice with the only difference being the bolt heads.
