I don't know for sure if they have the wheels you want in stock, but check with either of these shops. I've had great service at both:

Advance Performance Tires
(813) 868-1100

Driven Concepts LLC
(813) 236-4500

Call Extreme Wheels in New Port Richy @ 727-849-8677. Ask for Bob or Randy. These guys can get any wheels you want and know what will fit and waht will not. They are both XB owners. They will hook you up.

ok so i looked at all the places everyone referred me to. I even called the place that hip_2b_sqr recomended. they told me that they carried konigs and to go there and look at them...so this place is about an hour away, i get there and they have no konigs and maybe 20 different rims in total. to cut this short it was a total waste of time, sry to disappoint anyone. after going to about 10 different retailers in the entire county and getting the same estimate i decided to order them online through discounttire.com . doing this saved me $200 and a week in shipping time. They came directly to my house, tires mounted on rims and balanced, in 3 days. They look awesome. I ended up with the 17" Unkowns and Falken 215/40/17 tires. ill post pics later. thanx everyone for the help
