Default 17in wheels and tires

Currently running 18in rims which i like the size but not the wheel design. Found some nice 17in that i like. So question is, are 17in worth the buy because I am not seeing many choices on tires with this size. Not sure if im not looking in right place. anyone else running 17's

What types of tires are you looking for? I have had street tires, all terrains, drag radials, and slicks all in 17...

I usually look on brand websites first to see if they make the size I want then go looking for it on google.
