How Can i tell which Alloy Rim type do i have?

Hi all, I took a corner too close and not the rim is bended. Need a replacement so i hit a few websites and i did not know there were like three to four different 17" alloy rim types/styles, example: Painted, Chrome, machine finished. How can i tell what type/style that will fit with the rest of my three existing rim . She is 2000 auto Max SE 17 alloy wheel, original rim.
TIA

Go to a Discount Tire if you've got one close. They'll be able to tell you

Post a picture here and someone will most likely be able to tell you what you have.

He says A33 SE with original wheels, so it'd be these:


Try the classifieds, you'll likely get one for cheaper.

I went to Finishlinewheels.com and they have three finishes types; SILVER (OEM RIM), MACHINED LIP (OEM RIM) and CHROME (OEM RIM) but the same picture for all three finish, my wheel looks exactly like the picture that
"pmohr" posted. No idea when finishes is the correct one to buy from that website. worst case would be to buy the cheaper one and paint all the other rim to match.
