BBS CH or Breyton Spirits?

Hey everyone, I'm looking to purchase rims soon, and I think I've narrowed it down to these two rims. At first I wanted to go 5 spoke, and wanted the ACS Type IVs, but I didn't want to buy replicas, then I found the Breyton Imagines-- but couldn't find them in the correct offset for our cars, so I then I switched to the Breyton Spirits, then I saw Diesel's car on the BBS CH and now I've been obsessing over those for the past couple of days. I just wanted to hear everyones opinions on these rims, I really like the BBS CH, but they don't have a lip (which I really want), but at the same time, they're almost 20lbs lighter then the Breyton Spirits!

I don't race at all, but I love to do canyons, and I know bigger rims will help with handling a little bit (and I plan on hopefully getting sway bars), so the added weight of the Breyton Spirits doesn't really bother me too much.

If weight is not an issue, I like Breyton Visions over BBS CH, but think CH is DEFINITELY better looking than the Breyton Imagines. So if its is only between these two, get the BBS imho.

I would choose BBS over a designer-brand rim. CH's!

the CH's never go outta style. BBS is a great quality rim, strong and lightweight. Those 2 things never go outta style either. BBS is a better investment plus they look better i think !
