Default Opinions Please!!

Hi guys,
i'm thinking of upgrading my boring 16's to 17's and have come up with 3 different wheels to choose from, problem is, the more i look at them the harder it is for me to decide...i have a dark blue mica MY97wrx with a full c-west body kit...need your help on this one....below are pics of the wheels...


Rota Tarmac2 in full royal gold....

Volk racing CE28N in either gold or bronze

Or the OZ superleggera which i'm assuming everyone has seen before.....

your help will be much appreciated.....

Just rung a few local to Me Dazza and the 17's are £800, £1000 for 18's, and only the stores with Ripspeed, you do get Toyo's mind

Got to be the oz, best wheel IMO, but I may be slightly biased as I recently got myself a set of 18s in silver, still very pleased with them, just make sure you get the transfers which go round the rim which finish the wheel off nicely.

Two sets per wheel "OZ racing" goes around the edge of the rim, small and discreet but looks much better with, seems like you dont always get them.
