Need Rim Ideas

At the moment, i have a stock black 95 ranger xlt ext. cab with the 3.0 v6 and auto trans, 4x2. Im thinking about utting a lift on it soon (4" suspension lift and maybe a small body lift after that)
Anyway, im looking for Rim ideas. I want to put like a 32" tire or 33" tire uder my truck, but as for rims the size can very from 17"-20". Looking for something that is black in the middle of the rim with a crome finish right along the edge where the rim meets the tire.
Something kinda like this (Not sure how to post pics, still new to R-F):

Any other advice is welcome, or other ideas. Let me know what you think!
Thanks!

Go to summitracing.com and search for "wheel" then go through and find your wheels... I know there are steel wheels in a 17x9 but go ALUMINUM!!!!!!!

I checked out 05rangerxlt's rims, they are cool, but not what im looking for.
RanJerEDGE's rims are closer to the kind of idea i have, but not quite. Sweet tires though!
Thanks for the website, sumitracing.com, by the way.

Found these and these were pretty weet. Kinda backwards color scheme wise, but still looked cool.

Anybody else have like 5-6 spoked wheels set up on their truck with black inside the rim and crome outer rim?
