Default Wheel Question

OK so I have this idea in my head, of what I want my car to look like. Black Black and Black.. Black car black windows black wheels. body and windows are easy but wheels...

I've come down to the conclusion that 17' is the biggest you can go on a fox-body (87-93), I don't want to put the common mustang wheels on, or anything like that, you know what I mean. So there's about 123356723356675 different kinds of ricer wheels I've been looking at, but I have no idea if it will work on a fox body, all I know is 17' and black, I'm not very familiar with tire sizing... I know that I would need to have lowpro's...
I was thinking something along these lines... http://www.wheelsnext.com/product.phtml?p=583 but knowing my luck any nice wheel is probably for "Tuner applications"

so yeah, how would I know if this wheel would work on a fox body. Comments welcome

Those look like maybe 7 - 7.5 " width. I'd imagine you would want a wider rim. Best thing to do is call them cause they don't list any specs.....Its going to be hard to find a 'different' rim, not much there for Mustangs.

IMO, all black would look terrible. There wouldn't be any contrast.
