Aftermarket 696 Rims

Alright... been thinking hard about this. i figured I need a new front rim and finding another stock Marchesini (undamaged) may be next to impossible... so
i'm gonna upgrade.
I have seen four options but only the first three come in gold anodized so the last is out.
Carrozeria, OZ(ITX), Marchesini, and the DP Marchesini
pound for pound, dollar for dollar... what would you go with if it was a blank slate for wheels (oh and my rear Marchesini will be for sale)
does anyone have the weights on them to compare?
They are in order, most expensive to least expensive (notice i didn't say cheap)
Marchesini
OZ(ITX)
Carrozeria
and the DP Marchesini for looks

The million dollar question.. Do they fit?
I like the Carrozeria. I don't know anything about them. The design just stands out at me. They are different.

Carrozeria has the sharp edges, which makes them look very cool. For the front wheel there's less difference in appearance because of the brake rotors, but still a + for the sharper edges.
Did you decide about the gold/black? I'm liking black on most bikes even though I've seen some good looking gold rim bikes too.
All of these are light weight, no? Me, I would choose the least expensive, but Carrozeria if they are similar price.
BTW - this must be one of them luxury problems

Additionally, you could look into what might swap onto the 696? I know people have swapped the 5 spoke st wheels onto them...might give you the option of spending coin somewhere else

id say...
oz or dp marchesini mostly because i like the 5-spoke design.
you know i have the dp marchesinis and i love them. i'm not exactly sure on the weight but i know the rear rim with the tire was about the exact same as stock. granted the rim is an inch wider and the tire is also a lot wider...
but the looks speaks for themselves!

Call me a weirdo, but I'm torn...i'd really like the way the 160 rear tire feels and fits on my 696, I bet I would be the only person in the world with a 4.5 inch aftermarket rim on their wish list; however, those Carrozerias are quite saucy.
