Time for new wheels, Recommendations?

Ive been looking at the Vertini "Hennessey" and then i came across Aicona "ALC 33"

they look exactly the same to me, so which one is the knock off or whats the deal with these wheels?

i got a quote for the Hennessey wheels for $1,300 all four, just the Rims only.

Aicona looks like three pieces to me in the picture or maybe al least 2 pieces. I had a set of 20'' Vertini Regency, i love them but i just bend one in the front, not any wheel repair shop can fix it.
