SC Trying to Decide On New Wheels, Need Opinions and Suggestions!

Hey guys, i've got an '86 N/a build and it's time for new wheels. This was my dad's car before mine and he put these Fondmetals that you see in the picture on around 1990. They still look good but are a little outdated and small at 15x7, so i was wondering what you think would be the best looking AND performing wheels. I'm open to all suggestions, please include brand, finish, size, etc. if you wanna suggest something. I'm considering Enkei PF01s or RPF1s, but would really like a six-spoke design, but it's hard to find affordable ones. My max price is about $1500 for all 4 wheels, but i'm open to anything. Thanks!

Also co sidelong Motegi MR125s but I'm concerned a out the quality, they're made in China and only cost about 600 for 4 wheels, I don't want them to be like Rotas...

haha SOME Rotas are pimp, the ones that aren't broken, 2 of my friends had very bad experiences with them... I've looked at the Tracklite's as well but on their website they don't show sizes or weight and don't have any place listed where i can find them. Do you have any idea who sells them?
