only problem with those is that the size he has is the only one offered in 5x100 and the front just pokes too much with that setup imo

edit: pretty sure Watanabe have wheels that fit this car also
Yes, I was looking at that thread when I was scrounging for 16" wheels on the BRZ. I also found another good one that has the same wheel size and offset as the Compomotive for winter use...

The Compomotive 16x7 wheels I found can be ordered with a 40mm offset and a 5x100PD, so I think they will work well.

I looked at Watanabe's pricing, and they're about 2x the Compomotive. I did like their wheels though, and they might fit really well with the twins. The pricing on the Compomotive was about $245/wheel + $245 intl. shipping, so it's already breaking the bank compared to the Tire Rack steelies. They do include the lug nuts though, at least!
