    The design would depend on how you want your Crosswind to be like.... street type, off-road type, etc.

    Practically speaking, best to retain your existing rims (specially if your tires are still thick). refinishing it to chrome, hyper silver, silver, gun metal, etc would be your alternatives in finish.

    You can also go for bigger rims. 17-20" are possible; you would just need to get the correct offset so as to avoid rubbing issues. But be aware that the bigger the rim size is, the thinner tires you'd have to use. Thinner tires = good looks = bad ride. Not to mention that you'd prematurely wear and tear your suspension components.

    Answer these concerns then we talk the next step.

    Well, solution? Do not alter the original specifications.

    From my knowledge, the most you could do (should you so decide to alter you Crosswind's rims) is to reduce the bumpy ride. Stabilizer bars, change of suspension system (i.e. shocks), to name a few. Then again, I am unsure if all these suspension mods are available for the Crosswind and all these would cost you a fortune.
