Default Alternative Wheel Options

im lookin to get 17's sometime soon, i'd love to get 18's but the roads arent really in great shape to have them here in NY, im looking for hypersilver 7 spoke wheels just like in the picture below, they're from wheelmax, what im askin is... is there any "namebrand" wheel companies out there that make hypersilver just like these... and what is the tire size i should get to cushion better in case i do hit a pothole?

BTW im gettin my decals taken off tuesday night, ill post pics sometime next weekend (easter), i put the jag lights on, and they look tits!

The original wheel was called the AVS Model 7;



Since then, there have been numerous copies (starting with the Konig Tantrums) and I guess it's a really popular wheel. Personally, I wouldn't buy a rim that has so many copies. I wouldn't everyone in my area to have the same wheel... h:

yeah, i like the RH C-5's but im not willing to shell out 1K for a package of 17's, im lookin to spend 600-750 for 17's or so, im lookin for something real shiny but without the risk/cost of chrome, so i thought hypersilver would be a good option, and those looked the best IMO with the color option, any opinions on tire size for here in NY?
