Default Advice on purchasing a rim

I have '01 LC4 SuMo that came with 17x4.25" REAR rim, I'm pretty happy with tire selection but the damn rim is bent in 3 spots!

Don't feel like throwing down a grand on a new set of wheels or even $500 for the rear, decided to go the cheaper route and just swap the rim. OEM Behr is $200+ from the dealer and I was wondering if there are alternatives, perhaps even go 4.5" wide?
