Work Kiwami
These are quite nice alright. I've been eyeing up some of the Gram Lights (57CR, 57DR and 57 Transcend are all quite nice) and I had been having a peep at Buddy Club actually, are the cheap ones any use because they're VERY cheap indeed!
I've also been keeping an eye on JDM Distro, Croooober and UP Garage although the shipping costs from Japan seem a bit painful so I need to figure out if there's any cheaper way to get them back if I did find a bargain. I'll try Yahoo Auctions too!
Irritatingly it's not really the most common wheel spec so the stock options for anyone who's selling used JDM wheels aren't flooded with 15x8 4x100 wheels, I've widened the search to 7j-8j but I think anything bigger than 8j would be silly and I don't want to get into running nonsensical camber either so realistically offset will need to be probably absolute minimum ET25...
I can see myself ending up ordering a set of Work Equip 40 if I don't find anything soon though to be honest. It's not that they're terribly expensive in the size I want but it would have been nice to nab a bargain and have some cash towards the coilovers and other bits.

My MX5 has the exact same specs so I know your pain and frustration.
If you had started this convo a month ago, then I'd have told you to order a set of ATS DTC. They're very light and very strong, a true motorsport wheel in a sensible offset and 15x8/4x100.
Unfortunately after many years they've decided to stop manufacturing them and the GTR in September and they closed their order books about 2-3 weeks ago.
I have a set on my MX5 and they just look so good on every car.
It's worth setting up an eBay saved search, they do come up for sale, expect to pay anywhere between 250(v cheap) and 600(a bit much).
I paid 400 with needing a refurb, but it was the only set that had come up in about 24 months so I paid the asking price. Since I bought mine, about 3 sets have come up in the last 24 months and they've all gone for cheaper than that.

Low offset Work Kiwami in the gunmetal or the GT silver (the kind of chrome finish) could look really good with the concave.
They wouldn't be cheap, but much more reasonable than a set of 3 piece Work wheels.
