I think the thinner spokes makes the wheels look a lot lighter and the car sportier. The 5-spoke design looks heavy to me, and well, ordinary. Maybe that's because they are the more common style. I'd use the 10-spokes for summer and the others for winter. And you'll save a few bucks by not swapping your snows to the 10-spoke rims.
As for cleaning, once you go to Akebono ceramic pads you won't be spending much time cleaning your wheels. Besides the spokes are far enough apart so cleaning them would be pretty easy anyway.
