Default 3rd generation oem rims

thinking about getting the 3rd gen. 10 spoke 17 for my 99 gs300. I tried searching for any info but culdnt find anything. I am curious as to fitment/ride since the rim is a 17 x 7. are they worth putting on over the stock 16's?

Looks pretty good but if you can get the 5spoke 18s that would look better IMO

The 3GS has a huge 4 piston caliper up front with the 350/430/450h/460, I think its bigger than the Supra BBK. Seems the GS 300 wheel fits too looking at the pic above.
