Default interested in 17's

hey i may be hated for this post but here goes anyway.

i had my nephews 18's on my car for a while and i hate the ride, it's ok on smooth pavement but the ride gets to bumpy, so i decided to get 17's, but i want 17/10.5 for the rear, but i don't know how 17's look on a sc300, does anyone have any pics of a sc300 on 17's. and also i know the tires cannot be too small, so what size do i use.

and i don't want any 50-60 lbs rims.something with a painted center
don't know if my expectations are too high but is it posible to get a 17/ 10 w tires to weigh under 20lbs........

thanks alot

those are some really good looking wheels, but i think 18's will look better in that pattern, but the way i drive and the mods i have planed i don't know if 18's are the best size cus i did'nt see any 17's
