they will fit no worries, NA8's came standard with 14inch wheels, so 15's will clear the brakes no worries... I have been looking at getting a set for a while, i just havent bit the bullet yet.
I love these ones..
You would need to get the +40 offset versions, 0 offset ones are no good for an mx5..
hope i could help u out..
cheers

Pity they don't come in a 16" size................

For my taste, they look a bit "Mini-Cooper-y", like the spokes don't arch enough and the face of the wheel is a bit too flat...and it's hard to tell from this angle, but I get the feeling that the hub sticks out, and then the spokes go back (like a conical shape in plan view). So it's like a reverse-dish.

yeah true, i have a same feeling... pity we cant go the 0 offset...

I agree, et40 is way to conservative this style wheel.
How about these: http://www.performancewheels.com.au/super_lite_wheels.htm

Mmmm the 15" Superlites have far too many spokes to be a mini lite, and the centre thing is a bit too wide - the smaller ones are spot-on though.
Hahaha love how it says along the bottom "beware of imitations"
