good looking 17's will be hard to find. You will find most replica's or good designs in the 18" 19" range. What are style are you looking for?

I've used both of these sources, with high quality results in product and service. You can afford to be a little less restrictive than exactly OE specs, as a few millimeters of offset difference is essentially invisible.
