C5 DD.. everyone's waiting for a 17x11 so the two you listed may be a bit more unique... but the C5 DD do look great. (Check - OEWheels)

Comparing RUFF's to IForged is apples to caviar. The two are nowhere close to each other, the IForged cost a good amount more, are a ton lighter, and aren't usually an off the shelf item. Keep that in mind when you choose.

fiske has a flat 5 spoke with a lip. the only thing about those is that they are expensive. my cousin has them on his z28 and they look great! he has 17x11 in the rear and 17x9.5 in the front. if i see him later on, i will be gladley to take some pics or you.

Those iForged are not chrome. You are looking at 2 completely different ball parks there. If you want a deep dish budget 5 spoke chrome wheel, get the deep dish Y2K's, 18x9.5 (out soon) and 18x10.5's.
