Default What rims for a 3dr and a sapph 4x4?

I am thinking about getting new rims for my cars, a 3dr and a sapphire 4x4. I really like 3 piece rims, but they are very expensive too, so i wanna find some good rims with an affordable price and good lookin', so if you guys have any preference i will appreciate to hear about it

Cheers!

I really like those ones, but, how much they cost and how often they appear in ebay? Also i was thinking about something in 17 inches, and I dont know which one could look good...

Thanks tho
