I did find I could order those Konig's and the Kumho tires from DiscountTireDirect.com special order, says 10-14 days, free mounting and balancing, $1600 before $100 back. So I guess that's also an option.

I need to decide on whether I feel like paying less, having to sell 2 base wheels, or paying more and having a complete set.
For the purpose of looks, you'd probably run spacers in the rear, though that is up to you. A 9" rim in a +15 offset is very aggressive for the front, but fairly weak in the rear.
