I would not count the rice in my ratio. I would also make it more like a 60/40 ratio of Wheat to 2 row. Pils is required for German authenticity though. Any reason why other than that's what you have?
I am using the 2 row because I am trying to use it up and I already have the Wheat on hand. Does this look better?
1.00 lb Rice Hulls (0.0 SRM) Adjunct 0.00 %
11.50 lb Wheat Malt, Ger (2.0 SRM) Grain 60.53 %
7.50 lb Pale Ale (Crisp) (4.0 SRM) Grain 39.47 %
0.45 oz Magnum [12.75 %] (60 min) Hops 9.9 IBU
0.25 oz Magnum [12.80 %] (10 min) Hops 2.0 IBU
2 Pkgs Hefeweizen Ale (White Labs #WLP300)

Would I be able to use White Labs WLP300 in place of the Wyeast. It is just easier for me to obtain that yeast. It seems to be along the same Lines. Thanks.

Should be OK. I heard it was the same Weihenstephan strain.
Would it be wrong to substitute sterling leaf hops for the hallertauer hops? The LHBS is out of the hallertauer. I didn't know if this would totally change the recipe. Thanks

Should be OK, but watch your IBUs, Sterling is about twice as strong as Hallertau. Depending on the Alfa % you will want to scale back to about 1/2 for each addition.
I used 1/2 cup of Wheat DME and 16 oz. of water to make the starter wort. It will work fine for 5 gallons. Step it up to a quart if you are going to split it between two 5 gallon fermenters for a 10 gallon batch like I do.
