Advice on rims

which rims rould you guys recommend out of these two or have you ever seen a thirdgen with these rims?any pics?
Also I want a 17 x 9.5 or the 17 x 10 for the other rim since they dont make it in 9.5.
I am confused on what the numbers next to it mean in the other two columns.what backspace(for front and rear)do I need? and what one of the 17 x 9.5s description do I need....5x5.5?whats that mean?here are the links http://www.weldracing.com/KCStar.html http://www.weldracing.com/techstar5.html

I think those KC stars look sweet!
5x5.5 means that there are 5 holes 5.5" apart. I think that chevys use a 5x4.75, but I could be wrong.
