Default Need Help. VSM & Wheels + Tires

Ok I am looking for some new wheels for my 00 VSM Coupe. Right now I have Rota Circuit 8's in bronze w/ polished lip in 16"s. I want to stick with Rotas cause Im a poor mo fo. And I want to stick with 16"s because IMO they look best. I am not sure what wheels to go with. Im thinking maybe, some slips (not sure what color) black or gunmetal w polished lip. And might go crazy and get some GT3's. Maybe in red w polished lip. What do you all think. What wheels and in what color. Next Tires. Right now I have some 205/45/16 Kumho Ecasta 712's. There nice for the price but they are to plain and I want a better tire for some occasional autox's. I really want azenis but my delima is, they only make them in 205/55/16's and that is kinda to big of a sideall for my liking. The 205/50/15's sidewall would work but I dont really want 15's for my daily driver. So what else is a good tire comparable to the azenis that look nice too. Any pics of some examples would be great. I need your guys help. Here is a pic of my car right now. I will be picking up a CF hood this weekend hopefully. I need a change in wheels.
(Sorry shes big)

I think white C8's w/ polished lip will look clean on VSM (check mines out: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=997546)

...the white gt3's will most likely look clean also.
