Ebay has the Bridgestones for $149.99 for two, which isn't a bad deal. Costco sometimes has them for $250 for a set, including mounting and balancing.
You're right about the bolt pattern - 4x114; I just looked it up. Bummer on that. Smooth wheel covers would improve the aerodynamics of the LSi wheels.
155/80R13 tires are pretty cheap ($40/ea?) and they will also provide taller gearing and the sidewall will help ride quality.

Yeah I did some looking and my local scrap yard has one 13" wheel listed for $30, not sure if he only has one or if he has a set, I'll have to check. There's a yard about 100 miles away that has piles of them for $25, so either way it won't be hard to get my hands on a set, so sounds like 13's will be my best bet, and I won't have to worry about the hub bore.
