All right i could hold it no longer, called Ozzy Tyres and asked - $255 each and they don't bring in +40 offsets, seems they're only for the Hachiroku's (Toyota Sprinters) and the guy sounds too lazy to want to order in a set.

They even have an MX-5 on their home page! They make custom wheels so you should be able to order whatever you want in terms of size & offset. I know they have an aussie distributer - but can't remember who it is. Doubt they are cheap though...

RS-Watanabe does 16s too:

I think this guy has +40 offset wheels and he's just plonked on huge spacers to push them out to the guards...Watanabe does do 16x7 in +25 and +30 offsets which would give more dish to the look of the wheel (they also do 16x8.5 down to a +5 offset!!)
