...change the rims...I was lucky enough to get a great deal on 3 used ones that were in mint condition that saved me a bundle. I also had 4 replaced under warranty at one point. If all that hadn't happened there is no question I would have gotten new rims -- I probably would have gotten the BBS RK or RK 2-piece rims -- these are expensive, but relatively strong and look sharp. My other choice would have been the dual three spokes which are very European looking -- these are the Saab rims they put on the 03 SE Conv with Viggen trim. GenuineSaab sells a set for about $800 -- good deal if you ask me.
Ronal is a good place to look as is Tirerack -- I would search boards on rims as the topic has been discussed a bunch over the years. You might even come across some pictures of different rims on a viggen.
