Ryan, Fitti's are junk. Don't even think about those.
I hope I don't offend anyone who has Fitti's on their car.
I use to have a set on a Honda I had. They were soft as butter. Every little bump was an impacted rim. I swear I had em repaired probably 8 to 10 times before I sold te car w/ the rims on them. Poor guy that bought my car must hate me now!!! I even bought a fifth wheel to swap out so one rim can be in the shop at all times to prepare for the next pot hole! Unless the new Fitti's are stronger than the ones I had, I would not bother, althought their rim styles look good though!
If you're looking for a new rim, but don't want to spring for Volks (you know I'm a Volk guy!), try SSR or 5 zigen or Nippon. What ever rim you get, try to buy cold forged if you can, then forged, then semi-cast (I think). Plain cast rims are the softest.
I'm a true believer in you get what you paid for in rims.
Secondly, buy a Japanese rim. Almost, and I use the word almost loosely, all jap rims have a better quality finish than US or euro counter parts.
later.
