Both "Black Racing" and "Watanabe" brand wheels can look exactly like the picture above. Both come from Japan and I would pay the same price for either. Other 8 spoke wheels like "Performance" Superlites from Australia, Panasports from USA, "Superlites" and "Minilites" from the UK etc all look noticeably different.

Price will depend on width and offset, and condition. People shopping for a 7" wide rim may have to pay a bit more because 6" and 6.5" widths are more common. 15" wheels may cost more than 14" because they can be harder to find, and more people want them. A full set should fetch a bit more than finding 2 odd pairs.

Superlites are cool, but Watanabe/BR wheels would fetch a bit more in Australia since they are imported just so people can enjoy the JDM look. Also Superlites are not avaliable in as many sizes new. Only 6" wide for the 14" I think.

If its a set of 14" x 6.5" Watanabe or BR rims, I would paying around $250-$600.
