I need your opinion:

My friend from my old job in SLO who moved out to Massachussets got tired of driving his Miata in the snow, so he picked up a '99 2.5RS. He's looking for a set of rims for the car, but since he's new to the suby scene and isn't online much he emailed me for my opinion. I thought I'd poll the local wheel whores to see what they thought.

Like I said, the car is a '99 RS, black. He doesn't want to spend a ton on wheels. I'm thinking something gold, something Rota.

What do you guys think about these on an RS (and whether or not 8" wide +48 rims will fit):

Rota Boost

Rota Formel (gold and "royal gold")

Rota G-Force

Rota Attack

Rota Rev (but in gold)

Rota Tarmac 3 (but in gold)

or some RPF1's in gold...

Too bad they're out of his price range.
