Softstars would be the obvious ones and I think LMF has a deal going at the moment.

But don't get them.

make sure you get some with a ET49 offset as mine came from a LE calibra and the are ET42, on a corsa lowered 50mm, and they scrub on the rear arches just going over bumps with just me in the car!

i know bigger wheels does put more stress on things, but as long as you have uprated your Shafts, CV's & Hubs you should not need to get smaller wheels, i personally really like your wheels and think they totally suit your car! i would keep them and not worry about it, i had my Xe in for two years and i gave it abuse on a fairly regular basis and never had a problem with 17's, the same set up is still running my LET.

Just my opinion though!
