winter tires and wheels

Hi -
I am currently in the process of picking out a set of snow tires and (possibly) steel wheels for my 97 900SET (the current Michelin Pilots didn't impress me in a minor snowfall late last week, duh). I believe I have found a good deal on a set of Dunlop Graspics (suitable for generally mild winters in south-central Wisconsin), but I am unsure of what to do about wheels......
1. Other than looks, is there any advantage to using my current Viking alloys instead of getting steel wheels w/ covers?
2. I have read the threads about the Hakka's and Gislaveds, but haven't found much (if any) info on using Dunlops on SAABs.....Does anyone have any experience with them (good or bad)?
3. I'm sure that the local dealership will place a high $$$$ on new steel wheels. Are there any good online sources for buying steel wheels? Or are there any other Wisconsin NG900 owners that have done this recently and can recommend a 'local' supplier of steel wheels?
Thanks,
Aaron
