If you look around you can actually find a set of 19 inch wheel that will fit over the stock brakes and reduce the unsprung weight. The 5th gen has been out long enough, that the aftermarket parts that are available will allow you to build a older used one to be faster and cheaper then buying a 1LE and making the changes that your planning.

You should take a look at my
possible future build thread. There are a lot of part numbers in there that should help you meet your goals.
