Talking What Rims To Get?!?!?!

I have an '05 STI. Looking to get some really nice rims. My stock got bent in a little accident. Basically i have narrowed it down to a few wheel companies. Some feedback would be nice.

1.) Volk
2.) SSR
3.) BBS
4.) O.Z. Racing

Now money is not a big issue because i do want some really nice rims for my baby. But im just wandering what you guys think as far as reliability and performance. Anything will help!

Ya, they're very nice.

I like the O.Z.'s a little better, but if anything they're even more common. Look good, though, and they're light as all get out.

i like your rims blitz i meant i just wanted something a little less bling bling. But they are nice. Its weird but almost every suby i see has stock bbs on it. Hardly ever see one with aftermarket rims. And if i do see one with aftermarket its usually rota. But i stepped it up and got 18's. Now that i think of it ive never seen a silver 05 sti with aftermarkets. But i could be blind! Anybody got any pics of a silver suby with aftermarkets or volks for that matter? be kinda nice to get a sneak preview.
Lata all. Blitz your car is clean dude.

Hurucan I liked the OZ's also. I was looking at the superleggera's. But they are not available until mid or end nov. But i think these volks are the same style as those OZ's. I am getting them in a week. compared to a month or two. Im an impatient MF! laterz

Hey guys, Since i had the same question about what rims to get, i was thinking of getting Tenzo's? Either the Psycho's, Overdose, or Shu 10's. Anyone know if Tenzo is any good?
