Default Options for 17" Chrome 5 Spoke Big Lip Wheels?

Ok, before everyone comes in and bashes me for not searching, the freakin search hasn't worked for 4 days.

I'm looking for a set of chrome wheels. I know polished usually looks better, but I daily drive the car and I'm a busy college student and want them to be easy to take care of.

I just want to know what my options are. I have good tires for 17" wheels, so that's what I want to stick with. I am obsessed with wide lip rims too, so that would make it all the better.

The only ones that I have seen that I even halfway like are AR Rebels and AR TTM's (but the fronts don't have the lip). I like Smoothie IIs but they don't come in chrome (do they?).

Please give me some recommendations and if you guys have pictures, please post them.

Thanks!

ROH "ZS" wheels look good and have a nice lip. I had a set on my last S10.

It depends on how much money you have. Some Iforged aeros would be nice. But I'm also in college and they just don't really fit into my budget. I'd go with the Torque Thrusts even though they don't quite have the lip you're looking for.

The chrome is a lot more important than the lip. And TTII's don't come in chrome. I've looked at the TTM's but I'm not sold on them. I really liked them at first, but now I'm kind of iffy. I like the 10.5 width a lot better because of the lip (I wish the 9's had that lip).

Any other suggestions?
