wow those rims are so narrow, yeah your stock tires will fit them but id maybe look for something a little wider, they look like the rota slipstreams.

Didnt know they made knock-offs of rotas now too. I say dont get these, the quality is probably terrible. Go with a 15x6.5-15x7 with your stock tires and no stretch. I run 15x6.5 with 195/60's and have no problems.

those are the knockoff Rota Slipstream, and the rotas are not that much more than those are, so if you like the style of the rim look them up on ebay.

im running a 15x8 in the XXR 501 but they also make a 15x7.

the Konig Kolor is a good looking rim on the xB, just dont settle for the first thing you find, rims are what is going to make or break your box, do some research, look at all the pics on the forum and ask questions.

check out www.nlmotoring.com

I got my xxr's there and the service is great. You probably would want to keep stock tires on your steelies for winter and just as a spare set. After all, some falkens are only 60 bucks each in a 195-50 15 and lots of people are running that size.

plus, just personal preference, but i think those would look terrible in a 15, they look like they would lend themselves better to a 17 or higher.
