Default Classic Cragars on a 2000 Silverado?!

I have a 2000 silverado pewter and I need some opinions on some wheels. I am 18 and all my friends tell my to get 20 inch wheels and what not but i really like classic wheels. Does anyone know any wheels that resemble Cragar ss 5 spoke wheels or any classic wheel that will look good on my truck that are 17" maybe 16" and 6 lug? I have 16s now and want a little bigger maybe.

Something like that would look sharp. Hard to find it seems with our trucks being 6 lug. The hub is larger and would seem to interfere with a slim spoke style 5 star kind of wheel. Thats what im guessing your after. All the newer gm wheels that have 5 lug, the spokes are massive and most likely to not look like they dwarf the star design. Good looking truck btw

American Racing used to make tq thrusts in an 18". I had a set for a while, looked damn good. They were 6 spoke.
