Well guys, a little update on the Alpina link Waynovetten put up earlier in the post, here's a copy of the email I recieved-

Hi Wes,

Im afraid alpina do not offer wheels for the XR/XT range...


We do make supermoto wheels for the crf, etc and could supply these but you would need to do some research as to whether supermoto wheels from these bikes would fit your XT


The smallest rear wheels size we do is a 17x5.0 rim


We can offer discount for multiple orders but we would be supplying wheels that you may have to make spacers and bearing sleeves for etc


If the CRF etc moto wheels can be fit to your bike, drop me a line and i will look at the prices


regards

So as you can see I think this could prove to be a difficult mod to sort. I'm still convinced a set of MT-03 wheels could be the way forward.
