BWM style 230 19 inch rims on R60 Countryman

My wife drives R60 Countryman. We bought this a few months ago and I've been wanting to change the wheels.
Since its bolt pattern is 5x120, there are MANY choices. Aftermarket, as well as many BMW factory wheels.
I used to have E93 335i with 6spd manual a few years ago. It had wheel style 230 which is 19" and I always thought it goes with the car SO well.
So.. since R60 shares the same bolt pattern as BMW, bought style 230 fronts square setup that was in very poor condition. It needed refreshing.
This was my first time refinishing wheels and I think it turned out great!!! Not 100% but looks damn good.
There is some orange peel, but for dupli-color spray can, it's not bad at all. I think this will be as good as it will get with aerosol spray paint.
Total cost of the refinishing was about $100 👍 but needed a lot of elbow grease. lol

The rims fit perfectly with dead on offset too. No complain on the fitment. I just need to to drop the car by a couple of inches now. lol
Just waiting for BBS center caps to arrive. Because although these are BMW OE wheels, it is actually made by BBS.
FI, tires are 225/40/19.
