Default Thinking about going down to 17" wheels

I have 18" oem Lexus wheels on my 2006 now and i'm really thinking to about going down to 17" inches due to the horrible streets here in the Tri-State area of PA, NJ & DE. Can anyone recommend any online websites that may sell 17" inches.

Thanks for any feedback!

I searched Craigslist and found a set of OEM 17" silver wheels for winter tires. This is when you can be thankful for the LS430's old-school ABS-based TPMS system. You don't have to buy and reprogram sensors.

I have a set of factory Chrome 17" with 50% michelin primacy's that I am trying to sell at the moment. I went up to 18" rims. My 17"s look OK, the chrome is peeling but they are in great shape otherwise, NO bends or warps in the wheels. Let me know if you are interested.
