Default Not to sound like a smart a$$, but they LOOK different. ;-) Can't see it in the pics?

It's pretty obvious the (slight) difference in style. As far as big brake fitment goes--they either fit or they don't, there's not really a "better or worse" :-) Probably should decide what brakes you're going to get and then ask the vendor directly whether or not those wheels fit. Good luck

Default lol..."which one would clear big brakes better?" =)

if it clears, it clears...no difference. I can barely stick a piece of paper between my wheel weights and the caliper on my winter wheels...talk about barely cleared.

Covered lugs vs. open lugs, spoke style, etc. Both clear 332mm - biggest A4 brakes.
