I have access to a perfect set of '99 Mazda Miata wheels. The bolt pattern and hub hole match the xB perfectly, but the offset is a little different. Will my xB handle okay with these wheels? They are 15x6 wheels.

Access? I would just say try to fit them and see how well they sit. I did that with some toyota Highlander 19's and they look sweet. I had to do a little caliper bracket timming but they sit PERFECT!!

Nope. 16s became an option in 2001. 15s were standard I believe through 2005.
Mazdaspeeds came with 17s.

I have run a set of stock '99 Miata wheels on my 2006. Miatas had both 14" and 15" rims that looked similar in that year -- mine were 14", and I had to grind a tiny bit off the calipers. (Rounded off the square corners on the bit that spans the outside of the brake pad "holders").

I also have a set of Konig Helium rims I run on my Miata that fit fine on the Scion with 205/50-15s. They're 6.5" wide with 38mm offset. The optional 18" rims for the xB with 215/35-28s also fit fine on the Miata, but they're so heavy they ruin the handling and performance.
