FWI , the Sugion POE-110 OEM(matte) and I beleive the PE110(silver 
polish) also rings have superior clearance between big and small ring to 
any I have seen due to the big ring shape , which is unlike others 
including the basic cheap Sugino ones. They are not just pure flat, they 
have an offset mold .  I was not impressed with TA rings myself for this 
reason, I could not use a 36t mid ring and my 13t cog on a 7sp. FW, even 
with the 15t the chain was grazed. So if you have ever used an XD for 
example with basic Sugino rings you've possibly needed some spacers for the 
rings because the poor clearance.  Riv used to furnish these on their XD's 
sold with the basic rings for this reason. If you buy one with the OEM 
POE-110 rings no spacer is needed. 

   The PE110-S are their high end 7075 rings and OEM on the Mighty cranks. 
These are the rings that also were on the Alpina/Cospea. The rings on the 
Alpina2 and XD are the POE-110 matte finish rings , not 7075 auminum 
however.

Wiggle sells TA chainrings for about $57. Unfortunately, it appears they 
are out of 48t, but have 47t and 49t in silver. They do have 48t in black, 
but that's not what you want.

Good Luck!

If that doesn't work out, you could always get TA Specialites rings. I have 
a set on my road bike and have never encountered rings with a higher 
'bling' factor. They are so shiney :)

In that case , let your finger do the walkin' with search engines and

high end "touring" type crank equal to and/or better than the
