Think 17s are a bit small for an aftermarket wheel on a SC.

you could pull off 17"s with a SERIOUS drop, but you would never be able to get over speedbumps or anything like that

Not sure, I bought them off E-Bay. They are AMG 'Quake' as far as I know.

Supra TT 17's don't look too small IMO. You just have to get some pretty serious spacers to get the wheels out to a reasonable stance.

If you succumb to the peer pressure, send me details on the deal you found. I like those wheels but the new price is more than I'm willing to spend.

I love the Euroline DH's but for the style and look they are they have to be at the very least 19's consider even 20's. The only way I would put 18" DH's on would be with very very low offsets and a lot of meat in the back and the car being buried into the ground

You can pull it off going 17" with some wheels, but very very few. Not a big fan of 19's because then you start to sacrifice performance and ride comfort. 18's all the way.
