I guess you can just look at what 15"x6" rims that are available with the 4x100 bolt pattern.... Then look for an offset between 20 & 38mm. I would not go more than 38 beacuse you end up with too large a spacer. Less than 20 could cause clearance problems.
My setup works well but the rims are on the expensive side.

Here is more detail regarding the rim then you probably need:

They are less than 9lb. Nice wheels. Similar to the price it would take to get that weight in a 13" wheel - see Catch22's honda for reference.

You will need to purchase hubcentric spacers which TireRack does not sell.

Thanks for all the info Beran! You have any good vendors for alluminum hubcentric rings? I purchases some though Jegs awhile back and they were still a little off. They only offered 2 sizes around the VW fitment and the right size was in between. I had to machine the closer fitting set a little to fit and they only come in plastic. PITA!

You can often get them from Discount Tire.
