Aftermarket wheel problem for 9-3...wrong bolt pattern!

Hi everyone. I'm having some technical difficulties with regard to some aftermarket wheels that I am looking at for my 2001 Viggen. The wheels that I would absolutely love to put on my car are the 18x8 SSR Competition's (in the anthracite color from Tirerack). Problem is the bolt pattern. I understand that Saab spec is 5x110. These wheels come in 5x114. All of the other 18" wheels that Tirerack lists for the 9-3 just don't appeal to me!
Is there any way at all to make these wheels fit my Viggen? I could always replace the hub with bolts that corespond to the 114mm, but I think that is more trouble than it's worth.
Any idea how I could swing this scenario? Any insight would be greatly appreciated!!
TIA,
Tom
