Mercedes has the same bolt pattern and offset.  I was looking around for
15" or 16" wheels a few months back, and a local shop has a number 
of one-piece aluminum wheels, in 14, 15 and (some) 16 inch sizes.  Prices
were about $120 to $160 per wheel for most of the wheels.  

Let me know if you're interested, and I'll try to get the brand name and
styles.  There were a lot of different styles, wire, spoke, brushed 
aluminum, white, anodized, etc.
