using other car brand wheels,sources for aftermarket,,?

I am looking for 17 inch wheels for my 9-3SS. I'm considering Saab wheels. I am also considering aftermarket wheels.
I saw some understated but nice wheels from Holden. Some Vauxhall wheels aren't bad, either. Anyone try putting other cars wheels on a Saab?
The first priority is getting well made, nice looking wheels. The Saab wheel caps are nicer than aftermarket, unless the aftermarket company is well know. In the US, the Vauxhall dragon (or whatever that animal is) is attractive and not recognized as another car company. It would look silly to have another car company's badge on the wheels (but a few might be barely acceptable, such as Lotus, Aston Martin, Maserati, etc).
Question 1. Any elegant looking, non-flashy aftermarket wheels that you like? I've seen the websites of BBS, Ronal, ASA, Borbet, tirerack, etc.
Question 2. Are the Saab wheel caps and other wheel caps non-standard and variable sizes? If so, this would prevent putting a Saab wheel cap on an aftermarket wheel.
