Personally I'd definitely not run 225 tyres on 8.5" wheels.
235's sit nice and square on 8" wheels & are the minimum you'd want to run on 8.5's.
Tyreleader and several other German stockists used to have the best prices for BBS wheels but with the £ versus Euro not looking too healthy these days I'm not sure who would be best to supply a set of SR's.
A quick look through eBay using a whole of Europe search might be a good idea then see if the dealers will cut you a discount if you buy direct.
Wheel bolt covers and the U shaped puller are cheap and easily available from SEAT and Skoda dealers in black or if you want dark grey then Audi dealers do the same part in that shade but not black.
The U shape puller was about £1.75 when I last bought one and the wheel nut covers are about 30p each, all plus VAT.
People do sell them in sets on eBay for about £20 making a good ol' profit I'd think.
Alternatively if you have a TPS nearby just grab the registration number of a car that has them fitted as standard and pop to TPS.
