TiCH SS/Zirconia Rings feeback

Hello I am building my first rod and came across TiCH guides that had a neat option of gold or blue rings. I think it would look great on a 7'6" rod Med/fast action rod that I am thinking about making. Any feedback on Zircona material or TiCH guides in general? Durability? The only information that I got was that Zirconia equals silicon carbide in hardness at a fraction of the cost. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.
