the last picture w/ the 5 spoke wheels are VIP Modular VR08's..... very nice finish on those wheels!
The wheels shopped in the images above are more along the 19" size range. 17's would look very small on our car and if my suspicions are correct you'll be unsatisfied w/ them... may look a big nicer w/ a mild stretch and dumped 1/4 inch past tuck.
Gold wheels have a funny way of looking protruded so a 17" would look 16" and a 19" would look 18". Its just the color contrast. I dont ever recommend getting Rota's but if you do maybe get them polished up brighter or annodized gold instead of the regular gold finish which tends to be semi dull.
just my .02 cents. I'd personally go w/ 18" in the silvers w/ 225/35/18 it'd stretch the tires a bit more giving the sidewall more of a smaller profile look.

Are you dropped yet, or do you plan to be?
A mild drop (Eibach Pro-Kit, Tanabe NF210 or TRD) would look really good with 235/45-17's on wheels with those specs. If you're going with a heavier drop, then I'd stick with the 225/45's.
